Demo is behind me!!

 The demonstration is finally behind me.  I was a little shaky but all in all it went pretty well.  After all, most of the attendees sew with me every Thursday.  I consider them friends.

The only picture was one of me with the quilt that I will show a little way down the page.

I was demonstrating the QCR (Quick Curve Ruler) by Sew Kind of Wonderful.  And the quilt sample was Metro Rings.  This was the first demo I have ever done so I made a design board for each picture in the instructions.

I have made this quilt twice.  One for my friend, posted here.  And one for the motorhome here.

I cut all the parts for the entire quilt.  But I really wasn't planning on making another one at this time and I didn't want another UFO on my list so, after the demonstration I asked if anyone would be interested in taking the KIT and finishing the quilt.  Multiple hands went up so then I asked if anyone was NOT interested in it.  There were none.  So, I took the sign in sheet and used a random number generator to choose.

It was a true kit.  Some of the parts still needed the curve cut made so I loaned the ruler along with the instructions.  The winner was tickled.  I think, but not sure, that she is somewhat of a beginner.  I told her if she had any questions, I would be glad to help.

So here are the other quilts I finished for this demo.

Chic Picnic is also a Sew Kind of Wonderful pattern using the QCR.  The prints in this quilt were all picked up from the free table at guild meeting a year ago.  There was even enough for the binding.  Makes me feel good to make do.

It appears that I may have cut it a little close on the length of the backing fabric.  That was a little scary.

The next one was made with the Mini QCR.  I put this one together with nothing but scraps.  That also makes me feel good.

It's quite a small quilt so it will be donated.  It was a fun one.

I passed the books around during the demonstration and the woman that is in charge of our Quilts of Valor found a flag pattern made with the Mini QCR and has asked if I would make one that she could use for the center of a QOV.  So, I have added it to my to-do list.

And I'm back to rolling the dice and have already finished a flimsy, moved it to the to be quilted tub and drawn another to go in tub #6.  YYYAAAAAYYYY!!!!

Until next time.....

Wishing you more stitchin time than I will have.
