Cinnamon Rolls and A Finish!

Hubs made me cinnamon rolls the other day-aren't they delicious looking? Well let me tell you, they were delicious!

Remember the Bonnie Hunter Mystery quilt called Chilhowie? I've got it done and decided to have a professional long armer quilt it.
 

Such bright cheery colors, and A LOT of pieces!

SO I found the resources list in the All Iowa Shop Hop Magazine from last year and there's a lady over in Mt Vernon. So I met her over at Helio's Quilt Shop in Mt Vernon-one of my favorite places- Happiness by Design, Owner, Debbie talked me through her process and we chose a design that she had used in a display quilt in the shop, so I got to see it in a whole quilt!  I chose a purple cuddle backing-I ordered it from MSQC. It took a couple weeks to get it! It looks grey in this photo, but it's purple...see the design?

She also gave me thread options and I told her to go for it! It'll look great, and a couple weeks later-IT LOOKS FABOULUS!!!

You can see the quilting design in this photo.

And the design looks really good in these photos.

LOVE< LOVE< LOVE IT! It cost me just a little less than $200, including batting and thread, and I purchased the backing separately.
