Keli is complete except sewing down the sleeve and a label. Those two last tasks will be done today. It was nice that Kerry was able to get this back to me in time for St. Patrick's Day. If you look real close you can see that it is quilted with a very pale green; a good choice.
I found a bit of time to get further on my Sweet Apple project. This one will be used during the Summer months and lead into Fall. The white one white is varied in the apples but a school scheme in the sashing and outer border. I tried to be a bit different in the leaves of the apples, but messed up in the placement of the blocks on the top row. I want them in reverse and will make that happen after a visit with my "Clover". The pinwheels and the rest of the quilt top aren't sewn together which leaves it looking off. That of course will change when the seams bring it in and all together. I will be binding this one with red.
Hope your week ahead is a good one =^.^=

St Patricks Day, our son-in-laws birthday, he isn't getting anything with clover leafs this year. When we were near Queenstown, South Island, many year ago, the Doctor I was seeing down there had his birthday the same day.He was so popular, and the patients and gifts kept arriving, cakes with green icing, gifts in green paper, and a vivid green scarf, knitted and given to him by a reasonably elderly lady.Might have been a hat or two as well. Love the quilting on your top clovers.
Glad that you received the Clover quilt back in time to celebrate. Did a great job, love the pattern.
The apple quilt turned out cute as well. Happy St Patrick's day.
