Wanna see my design wall?
;0) Kinda bare, huh? That's because the rows have been sitting idle behind my machine for a good week now.
Maybe tomorrow they'll see some action once canning is done. More beans and cucumbers are calling my name....
Last night, I received a call from my lil' friend Jen {{remember her a couple of weeks ago?}} She was finished with her top, so we worked out a schedule for her to get her lil' tushy to my place this AM to get it loaded and quilted up. After an hour of pressin' and loadin', we were rockin' and rollin'; I had her jump on the frame (not literally) to quilt the 2nd pass---however, I think she was happy when I asked her if she minded if I finished it up when she needed to head out at 9:45 to get to work.
I can't remember the measurements, but roughtly 79"x85". She will be gifting it away this weekend to a friend for a wedding.
The pantograph used was Curly Q by Lisa Calle. I think this panto has risen to the top of "Amy's Favorite" list!
I ended the evening with a softball game at 7:00, and a 2 mile run at 8:30. All in all, a good day #1 of my final 2 weeks of summer vaca :0)
Happy Monday!
Jen's quilt is beautiful! She did a great job--as did you with the quilting. I agree the Curly Q is a definite keeper!
ReplyDeleteAmazing pictures . . . I might need to get some of them from you! By the way this is Jen but I am just going to post as anonymous so I dont have to start a whole account.
ReplyDeleteIt's going to make a wonderful gift
ReplyDeleteWow, great jobs on both your parts, it's a beautiful quilt with beautiful quilting. Someone is going to receive a really great wedding present.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great quilt -- and the pantograph is fabulous. Whoever gets to keep this one is going to very lucky. Hoping you will find time you sew something soon. The cucumbers can't grow forever.
ReplyDeleteThat turned out lovely... and Abby said "That's pretty!"
