Forever (70" x 80").
I indeed did some quilting on Forever after dinner, not before calling my mom to get some label information. I kinda figured I'd push to get this baby done sooner than later :) Unfortunately, she wasn't home, so I left a message for her to drop me an email with the information needed.
Simple backing; and by mid-afternoon, the quilt was removed from the frame and trimmed up.
My favorite standby edge-to-edge 7" feathers pantograph was used.
After checking emails (and a quick peek into Facebook), I headed back downstairs. No email from mom, yet.
So, what's one to do?????
CLEARLY, t'would be to load up another quilt and start quilting away!
Scrappy Pineapple Blossom (72" x 72")
The Chinese Cresents edge-to-edge pantograph was used; it's a QUICK pantograph, so after a few hours.....BADA-BING!
A simple backing was prepared the other day after finishing the top. Just like for Angela, backings are my "B" achilles heel!
Tomorrow, I have an all-day meeting at school and then back-to-back softball games directly following. Therefore, NO quilting or gardening on the agenda at all. I'm okay with that, though. I haven't been away from school a full week yet, but.....**sigh**..... lemme tell ya! This more relaxed schedule has SO SO been missed!
Happy week to come everyone!
Look at you go! They both look amazing!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a fabulous day! Two for you and my first is still sitting on the frame. Almost glad that you have meetings tomorrow to give me a chance to catch up. Both of your quilts look fabulous as the wait for the very last of the "B"s.
