Another finish for the instigator!!

Yup! I (Myra) have my 3rd finish to show you!!!
I am really glad that I got this one done! 

I made and sandwiched this quilt top about 9-10 years ago. 
It has been patiently waiting for me to have the confidence
to free motion quilt it on my own, with my little Pfaffy. 
I wanted to do something fancier than straight lines, I wanted 
to replicate some of the applique shapes in the borders, 
and I did manage it... The quilting was not done with total 
confidence by any means... Shaky stitching in many 
areas, but I'm happy with it and glad it is done!! 8-)
You'll note some markings on it still.
It is getting washed tomorrow...

I give you my....
"COUNTRY SAMPLER"
 Pattern by the Rabbit Factory

The other day I was being jokingly taunted a bit about "the leader of this Phd Challenge", should be a good example, and work diligently on all her committed PhDs, AND get them "ALL DONE"!!! Ya-ya! I'm just like so many of you... life gets in the way... Bla-bla-bla... You know!!! 8-)

I am happy with my 3 of 6, and will be more realistic on the 
next round of a PhD Challenge, if and when it happens..
Besides keeping track of more finishes on the group blog, I am on 
to making my first expected grand-baby a quilt, and finish up 
some baby knits now!!! 8-)

Happy stitchings to all of you!
I anticipate quite a few more finishes popping up here!! 8-)

Beautiful finish, Myra. It is good to have a reason to pull out our PhDs and get them finished. I hope you do it again.

It's gorgeous, Myra - and CONGRATULATIONS on getting 3 PhD's done - wooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo!! You may not have gotten everything done that you planned, but you still got 3 projects done that would probably still be sitting there if not for this challenge - so WELL DONE!!
