I'd like to thank Thearica and Madame Samm for all of the effort they put into arranging these hops. It's a huge amount of work and they've done a great job!
I finally got my beloved Janome back last week and had an already scheduled girls quilting weekend, so I've spent the last 72 hours quilting like a mad woman! I've literally had 5 hours sleep in that 72 hours, so this is going to be short and sweet in order to keep it somewhat coherent. Even though I pulled 2 all nighters, I wasn't able to completely finish my quilt, but it's mostly done.
I couldn't believe my luck when I found multi-colored blue poms that I think actually look like a rainy day.
This is my in fully assembled quilt top. I put the hot pink rain drops on pre-applique, but found that I couldn't quilt with them on, so I had to snip them off and will reattach them once the quilting is complete. I used my pom poms to symbolize rain drops around some of the cutest umbrellas possible.
I used white metallic thread and quilted a Morton Salt girl silhouette in the focus, beaded umbrella. I used blue metallic thread to quilt the umbrellas and rain.
My dear friend Sophie happend to be at the quilting weekend, which was lucky for me since she can draw and I can't. Stick figures are my forte, so the salty girl was well out of my league. Thanks Soph!!!
This is it's current state:
Thanks for visiting and putting up with my sleep deprived ramblings. I'm off to sleep for about 14 hours now.
Here's my fellow Pom Pom Hoppers, I hope you get to visit them all and enjoy their Pom Pom Shaking as much as I do!!

I love the quilt. The poms to simulate rain drops is a great idea and perfect for spring. The quilting is wonderful. I went to a free motion class on Saturday and that'll probably be that. I have trouble visualizing while I'm moving. The instructor's theme was to mark none, if at all possible. I did sign up for a walking foot class she offers - that's more my forte. It looks as if you have certainly found your niche. Thanks for hopping, sharing a wonderful quilt with colors that are some of my personal favorites, and being an inspiration. I can tell you missed your machine. I hope sleep will come soon.
What a totally adorable quilt with all those lovely umbrellas. Who wouldn't want to walk in the rain with one of them? Great idea for use of your poms and wonderful project!
Divino!!!
What a sweet quilt and the pom poms add just the right amount of whimsy! Great job!
