umbrellas and other quilt tops...



 is there any better sight than a pile of quilt tops?


 the only thing i can think of that is better is possibly a pile of completed quilts.



 january has seen me not only make 2 quilt tops from scratch but also finish off one from the WIP pile...big YAY!


 i jumped on the scrappy trip along bandwagon and made my first quilt top of the year.


 this was swiftly followed by making my Glimma quilt top...
and whilst the pressure of relative ease was still present business wise, i finished off my umbrella prints top.
i really love this top. 
the girls at umbrella prints are design geniuses and rank right up there with lotta jansdotter in my eyes (as does someone else who i'll tell you more about tomorrow).


i am hoping to tweak a little more time into my days to get these 3 quilted and bound before real work gets back to its crazy mayhem.
i'm not sure if i'll succeed but i think you will agree it's a damn good start to the year!

Adore the blue and orange elephant quilt top! And I suspect I know who you're going to be talking about tomorrow...
