I'll upload 3 pictures of each of these quilts to flickr hopefully later today so you can find your blocks. (It's done...go here if you want to see more pictures.)
I think my original goal of completing the quilts by the end of the summer is pretty reasonable. Just lots of binding to go. Aren't they all so cute!
We have a Spring to Finish May winner too. I'm so proud of everyone who participated. In April we had 247 finishes and in May we had 273 finishes. (that's rounded up because we had some half and third finishes that counted!!) That's FABULOUS! Congrats to everyone. The winner of my goodies is Diane. Check out her blog and her work...you won't be disappointed. I'll get your goodies to you as soon as I can, Diane!I'm off to Seattle tonight...traveling more next week. Doesn't do much for making progress on the move or getting me back up and sewing again. I miss my sewing machine, my rotary cutter and even my iron.

Congratulations to you and all of the wonderful folks involved in this project. I hope you have a special project in mind just for you once this is all done. :o)
They look great! You have done a wonderful job of getting them all together. What a fantastic project. Have fun in Seattle.
They look so great! It must be so fun to see them all turning into such beautiful quilts!
The quilts look great! I found my block and it fits right in :) I wasn't sure!
Happy travels - all the other stuff will still be waiting for you, so just enjoy :) Live in the moment!
Of course you would have to come to Seattle when it's suppose to be low 70s and cloudy (possibly rainiy). ;)
I love the red and aqua quilts. I need to start collecting aqua fabrics.
I'm still amazed at how all those different blocks came together cohesively.
So glad to see the last tops and can't wait until they arrive for me to quilt them. They look great!! Congrats to Diane on her spring to finishes. It was fun doing it and allowed me to get 2 done that I might not have gotten done otherwise. Have a great time in Seattle! Oh, don't forget to let me know when the PI quilts I sent back arrive in your hands.
Aren't we amazing and creative! It makes you feel like you could do anything.
Congratulations on getting them all done, what a huge job. Enjoy your time away, and congrats to Diane.
I'm still amazed at how well the individual blocks all come together. They look great and are sure to make their recipients happy too.
They look amazing Jacquie - you deserve some sort of award (or paid vacation) for all that work! I wish I could help you with the bindings! Hope you have fun in Seattle and traveling next week!
bwahahaha
it MUST be bad if you're missing your IRON!!!
:-)
enjoy your trip, the tops are lovely.
say, I don't remember....what charity are you giving all those charity quilts to?
just wondering
The all look fantastic!
And this is before quilting!
Great job ;)
And I saw my blocks surrounded with so many beautiful blocks - exciting :)
the tops look great... i can't wait to see them quilted!!
The quilts look great. Now I see my block and I'm wondering if I measured wrong. How hard could it be to measure 12 1/2"? But there's mine with an added big border. Thanks for fixing it!
Jacquie, what a wonderful project you started. I'm so impressed with all the work everyone did and you for putting it all together. What a big project to take on. And once again, you've done such a great job with it!
They look really great tops. I'm glad to be a small part of this project. You did a great job,Jacquie!!

OH. OH. OH. I'm absolutely thrilled to have been chosen! My daughter (we're both Jacquie groupies) called me with the news before I even had a chance to read my e-mail today! Thank you so much!
Hello! Congratulations. Beautiful:))
I love them all! And the Spring to Finish was inspiring. What are you doing next to get us to finish projects? Also, sending more selvages right away!
What an wonderful sense of satisfaction you must be feeling. Congratulations, you really pulled off an amazing feat of global goodness. My hat is off to you and the other ladies who helped you.
All the blocks have come together to make some amazing quilts! My favorites are the blue and red ones! But love the all!

hurray for the end of the IP quilts getting done-they all turned out so fabulous. How wonderful to have so much help in turning them into quilts that will warm whoever receives them, inside and out.
Seattle? enjoy -I am headed that way next weekend myself. You are truly amazing for accomplishing as much as you have -from Jon's fantastic quilt to the last of the IP tops to your own amazing May Spring to Finish accomplishments. I hope you take some time to recharge your batteries.
Oh my! I am drooling....DROOLING! These are so wonderful!!!
