There is no quilter I know who doesn't seem to work best under pressure...
I didn't think I would get this gift done before Christmas
but
I surprised myself!!!
Helps when you are an early bird and the sun isn't up till 8am
I have been going to my sewing room
and
getting things done!
I installed a new light that is so nice and bright.
It feels like sunshine
I tried to keep the quilting on this calf more airy and open...
With minky on the back I didn't want to squish the nap too much
I love how the quilting looks so cool on the back though
I just used the 'hair' on this panel to be my guide to quilt the face
I made it to fit the size of the minky
I did not want to cut it anymore than I needed to.
It makes such a mess!!!!
Just look at my foot of my long arm....
Furry!
Cleaned!
I was trying to make the white sashing look like rope
I need to work on that....
If you don't know me by now....
(I love that song)
I love susie's magic binding technique.
It is all machine applied and gives you a flange!
Here is a video on how easy it is!
It's done by Marti who was a scrap squadder with me for Quilt Maker Magazine!
Marti also has a blog if your looking for some more quilty reading!
Another one MAKES some dust....
You should see my floor...
but
I would have to kill you....
