Chatelaine purse

                                                                                                            

I pieced together this 27 year old Baltimore Album Project                                                                                                                               I still think it needs more borders and blocks

The purse got its chain and now hangs from its  chatelaine

An Idea for later

And I have this Idea for the coming year >

And I need to finish my youngest's Ellie, 

preferably before next chrismas!

Big Ellie

I thought

 for sure     I could finish it this year!

Looking forward into the new year. may it be better than last.

The Baltimore Album Quilt

I also finally put this together, thAt only took 27 years....0.0!

This was my third applique quilt.

I made a Noah's ark quilt from a kit, for my son, 3 years before which, I have no Idea what happened to,

and a Sunbonnet Sue quilt, that I drafted the Sue's myself, while on a family driving trip in 1994.

I started this whilst pregnant with my second child.

And it's not done. I wasn't expecting it to be so tiny! It measures in at only 36" x 48"

I think it needs 2 more rows or maybe a top and bottom row..........I don't know.

9 of the blocks were sewn between 1995 and 1997, the last three, blocks the baskets were sewn in 2000 And the Ship which I also drafted a year later. All the blocks come from one of Ellie Sankowicz Baltimore album quilt books.
