The Skies Parted

The sun shined down and the Angels sang...Hallelujah, Cathy finished her Ohio Sampler quilt top.

I didn't make all the blocks from the book.  I pulled some from other projects.  There is a large block made from 4 Sally Post blocks.  A couple of blocks are from Cheri Payne's Common Threads pattern.  I also included blocks from Jeni in the Willow QAL.  One block from Hip Chicks BOM and finally one from Barbara Brackman's BOM from a few years ago.  Now I can take a deep breath and relax.  Ready to get ready for a new Sew Along with friends in July.

 BTW....the skies did part....but the sun didn't shine...It's been raining since yesterday.

 Thanks for stopping by.  

 Hugs, Cathy

    Dear Cathy,
    congratulations, this looks beautiful. Can picture you are still doing a happy dance.
    Rain is always good, means we can stay inside and sew.
    Greetings,
    Sylvia

    Woohoo! This is beautiful! You must be very happy. Great job to "use up" some orphan blocks to get this finished. It looks very "you". Congratulations!

    I love the many varied blocks, but especially the eagle! Maybe when I get finished with my Dear Jane quilt - if ever - I can make this type of quilt!

    I'm behind on email and totally missed this post. Your quilt top looks great. I've started putting my blocks together, and the end is in sight. Congratulations on finishing. Are you joining in on Old Voices, New Impressions?
