Austin Bluebird Complete
I just finished my Austin Bluebird quilt. I think this might possibly be my favorite quilt. I enjoyed every step of the process. There is something about a sampler that keeps it from becoming tedious. I hand quilted it, and it was fun to pick different quilting patterns for the various blocks. It is hard to tell from the pictures, but hubby was just a little too short to hold up the quilt. I needed my 6'4" son for this one! I don't usually do kits, but I loved this quilt the moment I saw in on the Minnick and Simpson blog. It was my birthday present last January and I was so motivated I finished it within the year.
I'm linking to Kathy's Slow Stitching, as there are many hours of slow stitches on this baby.
