UFO for November....

Well I almost made it.....  I almost got my Harry Potter quilt done.  I did add the final two rows, completed the castle (the last row was the hardest), attached them, and the only thing not completed, was the side wings (the side pieces to make it wider.

It's huge.  Check it out yourself.


My favorite block

The hardest block to make, the castle.

The funnest block to make but just as hard as the castle
 Loved the quilting with the waves. and the circles around the other ones.

Quilt pattern by SewFresh, a wonderful Canadian Designer, who makes fantastic patterns.  She's on Etsy.


You had a choice, you could do the moon in the middle like I did or at the start so when you put the owl to the left, it looked like the moon shared both.  I love my choice.

So I'm not done, yes I know, it's crazy, I will have to do the side pieces, quilt them and attach them.
They're the length of the quilt which is very very long, covering the the pillows and the bottom of the entire quilt.

Here's what it looks like at this very moment.


Here's what I have to do next:

Quilt side panels, add them on, and put bias all the way around it.  I want to show this to my quilting group, but the bias will take a long time.


On the up side I have a second goal, since this is smaller for the month, I want to catch up on my Disappearing Row Quilt Along by Patchwork Posse.




I have two of the eight done, as you can see.  That means 6 to complete and usually that means 5 or 6 blocks of the 6 patterns to complete, but this whole thing is completed by November and I'm thinking of giving this up for a Christmas gift.  I started this one to get my stash down of left over material, so this is what the idea was.  rows.   But it seamed to develop, grow, and now I'm looking for material for in between the rows.
The material is wonderful, can't wait to put it together, and I'm looking at doing it before the final row in the middle of November.  Want this done at the end of November so we'll see.








So I am hooking up to Elm Street Quilts to complete one more (OK two) UFOs in the OMG challenge.  THIS TIME I'm finish that darn Harry Potter.
