I am posting my Quarter 4 projects for the 2013 Finish A Long hosted by Leanne @ She Can Quilt. I still have projects from my Quarter 3 list that I have made slight progress but not finished yet. Here they are….
1. Winding Ways Quilt
This is a Winding Ways Quilt that I have been hand piecing for my daughter. I have added a few more rows. I have to baste and quilt. Hand Quilting I love but timing might not allow it.
2. Grandma’s Star
This is a scrappy 1930 reproduction fabric quilt. I finished the borders , basted the quilt and I started hand piecing this Grandma’s Star quilt, in Quarter 3. It was a big job to finish in one Quarter but I am very happy with my progress.
3. Triple Irish Chain
In keeping with 1930’s this Triple Irish Chain quilt top is also in need of some borders. The borders are made up of blocks so a lot of machine sewing. I also want to hand quilt this one!! I hoped to work on it in Q3 but haven’t made any progress.
4. Table Runner.
This table runner was on my list for Q2 and Q3 and now Q4. It needs to be finished!!
That concludes my list for Q3. I’m looking forward to ticking a few off the list. I am linking up with Leanne @ She Can Quilt for the Q4 2013 Finish-A-Long. If you haven’t considered joining you should seriously think about it. It is a great motivator to get those jobs out of the sewing room. Even if you don’t finish and make progress then you are moving toward your goals. If you don’t make it this year you can always try for 2014. The Finish A Long is moving to Katy from The Littlest Thistle in Scotland.
I am supporting the linky parties with Fabric Tuesday @ Quilt Story , WIP Wednesday @ Freshly Pieced, NTT @ My Quilt Infatuation, I Quilt @ Pretty Bobbins, Whoop Whoop @Confessions of a Fabric Addict and Finish It Up Friday @ Crazy Mom Quilts. Stop by these wonderful blogs to check out all the lovely projects and/or link up and support them.
Wishing you a fabulous day. As always, thank you for stopping!
Happy Sewing ………Marie x
Quilts with Personality 
the winding ways one is so effective, did try to do a block but what a disaster! I also was drawn to the 1930`s block, tried to work out how it was done, think maybe the brown fabric was like a foundation and the other shapes have been added to the top of it?
I think I’ve probably said this before but that winding way quilt is just so cool. I’m intimidated by hand piecing but maybe I could EPP?
Your winding ways looks amazing, really pops out. They are all amazing really, such beautiful quilts!
Love your Winding Ways and look forward to your finishing that one, of course, Marie. The Grandma’s Star quilting looks very sweet. And I can’t wait to see your scrappy, gorgeous triple Irish Chain as a finished top!
As I scrolled down the page; each one I loved more than the one before. WOW….Ambitious beautiful work. I was so amazed to read you did the Winding Ways by hand piecing! It is beautiful. Congratulations on having so many beautiful projects.
Swooooooon!!! 🙂

Lovely work!
Your Grandmother’s Star is beautiful. I can see why it’s an ongoing project but will be just wonderful when done.
It’s my first time I see ” The Winding Ways Quilt” and I like it a lot! I have to make some in the future too 🙂
I believe you will finish your projects on time
All of your projects are so varied and pretty! I especially love your Winding Ways and Star quilt. I love all of your hand quilting!!
Beautiful quilts. The Winding Ways look wonderful with all the “pointy” piecing that you have mastered so well.
You have inspired me to dig out my winding ways quilt. I started it over 12 months ago! It is suh a pretty pattern.
Love that Winding Ways! And you have a great eye for color; your quilts are beautiful!
Your Winding Ways quilt looks awesome!

I’m so happy you shared at Needle and Thread Thursday!

Oh you have some wonderful quilts in progress! I really love your Grandmothers Star quilt! Just beautiful! Your Triple Irish Scrappy chain in wonderful too. I have a Double Irish Scrappy quilt waiting to be finished. The top is done, the batting and backing have been purchased. So I have quite a fondness of your Irish Chain! I really like how you made red crosses at every intersection. It eally pulls the quilt together!
I adore that Grandma’s star – so beautiful.
Thanks Amanda ! It is definitely a favourite

Wow these are all lovely but I esp. like the triple irish chain…so pretty.
I vote for handquilting on those two projects! I have a project here that I’d like to hand quilt but time does not allow, I fear… Thanks so much for linking up!! 🙂
You have the patience to hand piece that winding ways? I take my hat off to you!It is lovely.
I’m still trying to pick my jaw up off the floor! That Winding Ways quilt is just beautiful! I’ve always wanted to make one, and your choice of just one fabric (and gingham at that) has completely inspired me! Gorgeous.
And I love your triple Irish chain as well. Are you doing a theme with your quilts, 1930s and all? If you are, it’s a brilliant idea. Best of luck on your gorgeous quilts!
Wow your work is amazing! We drooled over the grandma’s star! Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous!
Goodness, Marie, you’ve got a lot of beautiful things going there!! I especially love your 1930’s repro quilt – what a great block! Whoop whoop!!
