The other day I said I needed a finish. But when I looked back, I realized that I haven't been slacking as bad as I thought.
So, here goes.
When I did my demo in April, I passed this book around for everyone to flip through.
After I was finished, the one that is in charge of our Quilts of Valor program asked if I would make this to be used for the center of a QOV.
Sew I did. It measures about 36 x 44. She will add borders or blocks around it to complete a QOV
Five years ago, my granddaughter, age 12 at the time, created this painting
Not thinking about pixelating I started pulling fabric and came up with this design. This has been a flimsy since 4/2023. I finished quilting it in May and there it sat, waiting for a binding. This was the finish I needed.
In the meantime, while that was waiting for a binding, I quilted Jen Kingwell's Happy Birds for my friend Mary. I quilted all of the borders and then went back to the center so I could change thread.
I was so excited to have this one finally finished and then....
Three hours of frogging (rip it, rip it). I'm happy to say it is fixed and finished.
Sew, not a bad month and half after all.
And, for your viewing pleasure, here is a picture of Lizzie doing her nightly routine of belly rubs.
Until next time, wishing you more stitchin time than I will have.
