Tumbling Down

I put the final stitches in the sleeve and label Friday night, and my tumbling block quilt is now complete and hanging in a place of honour.  I think this is my favourite quilt ever.  I've had this design rolling around in my head for a long time, and it came out just how I'd imagined it.

For those who didn't see my posts last year, this quilt is entirely pieced.  No applique, and no paper piecing either.  I don't enjoy doing either of those methods, so I did my best to avoid them when I made this quilt.  However, I cut more diamonds and sewed more Y-seams than I ever want to see again, in doing this quilt :)

Since it's Wednesday today, here's an update on my Accountability Challenge.  I finished 2 items off the list, and made progress on a couple of others.   The quilting on Morning Splash is done, and the star mystery (which definitely needs a name) is loaded and ready to go.

- a Hawaiian wall-quilt that's been on my frame since 2005
- a picture quilt from my 2005 trip to Mexico
- a set of 3 wall quilts (need final embroidery and to be hung) (started in 2008)
- a stained glass dragon (started in 2009)
- tumbling blocks (started in 2009)
