I quilted this 2 weeks ago but finally hand sewed on the binding this week. I have 2 more quilts on deck to hand sew binding so I potentially have 2 more finishes this month.
I basically just echo quilted the flowers and did a swirl throughout the sashings.
I got out my "Crazy Cat" blocks and sashed them into a long table runner that fits my dining room table. After I took these pictures I added some embroidered whiskers. I am hoping to get this quilted in time for Halloween. I guess this had better go at the top of the list for Octovber. ;) Linda seemed to like it too!
Here are the last two "Life is Beautiful" blocks. Now I need to start making 4-patches and start the applique process.
Another weekend has flown by. Time to sit, relax and sew some bindings. I hope you all have a happy, healthy week.

love your finished quilt...goodluck with the binding.......
I really love that Life is Beautiful pattern! I have been wanting to make it also but I just can't get past the price. It was really spendy if I remember right.
Someone else with a very productive weekend. Well done! Love your SBS blocks. I've come to a halt with mine. Need to get a move on there! Love the cat table runner too. Well done!
Your flower quilt is just beautiful Yvette! And the cats will be so cute on the table for the Halloween season.
Love the fabrics in your quilt. Beautiful!
Your cat blocks have the feline seal of approval.
Now you are up to the fun part of the LIB.
Sweet quilt, Yvette! And, I love your embroideries.
I enjoy handwork so much that I also enjoy bindings. :-)
You have been very busy. The cat quilt is a good finish for the season.
beautiful finished quilt!
I adore your crazy cat table runner - I'd love to make one and I have the 'perfect' table and cats to admire it - just like Linda!
Your embroidery is so inspiring. Beautiful!
Yvette, all your projects are delightful and your stitcheries are perfect. Though I am not fond of cats, your runner is unique and beautiful. Congratulations on your finishes.
I love the Crazy Cat table runner. Your table will look so cute. The flower quilt is so pretty.
They're all wonderful as usual Yvette, but I just adore that cat table runner! That is the cutest ever!
Congratulations on a beautiful finish! Love the crazy cat table runner too! :0)
Oh my word, Yvette, you got SO much accomplished. Kudos to you, dear friend.
And such beautiful finishes!!..
The echo quilting was a great way to quilt this one.
Time to relax - go to work and relax...I'm bad....LOL
Love the LIB blocks...yeah! you are finished with the stitching. I haven't worked on mine for over a week. Too tired!
Your flower quilt is so pretty...it will be wonderful to put out for Spring. I love the name Linda for a cat...makes me laugh every time, I don't know why. Oh the Crazy Cat runner looks great.
Both projects are wonderful Yvette and to have 2 more so close to being done!! Linda just wanted to make friends with those different colored cats LOL.

Absolutely love the cat table runner; it is so cute! And the echo-quilted one is beautiful! You do great work! Although I guess since we all enjoy this, we should call it play? :)
Nice Finish!! And I love the buggy Barn vat runner...is a "flimsie" a "top"?? I'm still trying to learn all the blogger lingo...
In stitches,
Teresa :o)
Beautiful flower quilt! And you stitching on Life is Beautiful looks very nice. And the cat runner is definitely for cat-lovers!! Great:-)
Oh, they are all so great. I really like that cat table runner. Very cute and perfect for fall.
Your flower quilt is adorable!
Those LIB blocks .... ymmmm .... I'm so tempted to get the pattern. Looking forward to seeing more of this project come together.
Linda almost stole the show....I love the cat table runner! Too cute! and as usual, the LIB blocks are so beautifully done...
but I covet the flower wall hanging. Better nail that one to the wall the next time I'm around!! Very springy and happy!!
An excellent week to you!!
I like the variety of flowers on the first quilt. And the cat quilt is wonderful. A friend of mine made one of those.
Lots of goodies, but I just love the Crazy Cat blocks. My sister just purchase a quilting book by The Buggy Barn and I think it is the same cats.
What a great quilt!!!! It's just beautiful!
What a wonderful bunch of projects! I've never seen that cat pattern. What fun!
You are getting alot done...and I love both quilts and your stitchery.
I love the cat table runner....and the kitty walking on it.

Beautiful floral quilt and I adore the cat table runner. Such a cute table runner for Halloween. Congrats on finishing your lib blocks. Can't wait to see how you put them together.
This has been a great year of finishes for you so far. Wow! Your kitty runner is looking awesome (love it!) and I await with great anticipation seeing those Life is Beautiful blocks come together. That seems like such a cool project.
