End Of The Rainbow

ads

That's a roll as well as a finish. I've taken the concluding stitches on the Rainbow Jubilee quilt. As a reminder, this quilt pattern is the Jubilee Lap Quilt from the Black as well as White, Bright as well as Bold book yesteryear Kim Shaefer. It finished upwards at 61 x 81 inches. This was my projection for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2018.



Here's how it looks from the back.


And I remembered to lay roughly labels on it. There's my personalized label, but I also remembered these piffling "P.S. I Love You" tags that I picked upwards inwards a quilt store a really long fourth dimension ago. They've been sitting inwards a drawer, forgotten. Since this is a quilt for my son, it seemed a skilful fourth dimension to lay ane to use.


Edited to nation I'll move linking upwards to the finishing political party at Elm Street Quilts.



So that was my wearisome stitching for yesterday too. Today, I'll commence working on the concluding of the Sundress blocks.

But that's non all the sewing I did yesterday. In the afternoon, I caught upwards on the concluding of the monthly quilt blocks. This is the near recent of the Tiny Tuesday blocks.


It's laid diagonally.


This block is supposed to move the 14th block, but somehow I cause got xv blocks for this Tiny Tuesday project. I'm non certain why. Anyway...here are all the blocks I cause got as well as therefore far.


Then I finished 2 to a greater extent than of the Countdown to Christmas blocks. This kickoff ane is Little Red House...only, I'm making my blocks from blues as well as greens as well as and therefore mine is simply called "Little House." It was designed yesteryear Christine Weld. You tin find the instructions correct here.


This side yesteryear side ane is called Jolly St. Nick, as well as it was designed yesteryear Melissa Corry. You tin find the instructions correct here. With bluish as well as light-green blocks, it doesn't brand a lot of feel to cause got "Ho Ho" inwards my not-for-Christmas quilt. My quilt is simply intended to absorb roughly bluish as well as light-green scraps.


I suppose I could plough the block upside downwards as well as telephone telephone it an "oral orgasm." Oh. Oh. Like when you lot swallow the best chocolate candy ever.


Or, you lot could read it from overstep to bottom as well as telephone telephone it "I-O, I-O," every bit in, E-I-E-I-O. Or you lot could telephone telephone it McDonald's Farm or something similar that. Why, the possibilities are endless!


Edited to nation I'm linking upwards at the Countdown to Christmas sew-along political party at Mama Spark's World.

Speaking of McDonald's Farm (perfect segue), that's what I'll move working on today. The side yesteryear side block is called "There's a Mah-ah-ah." It's a naughty caprine animal eating a quilt. Here's the movie from the cover. Sorry for the blur.


Finally, Mike helped me ready my quilt intermission system. This is from Patsy Thompson's website, as well as it's System #2. Eliza extends all the way to the dorsum of the table, as well as and therefore System #1 wouldn't move amongst my machine. The brackets are supposed to move attached on the sides of the table, but it worked best for my tabular array if nosotros did them from the back.


I haven't truly tried this out yet, as well as I belike won't until side yesteryear side month. If you lot desire to run across how it works, you lot tin watch the video on Patsy Thompson's website. More on this later.

So that's it from me today. It rained the whole live-long twenty-four hours yesterday. I involve to exit as well as fill upwards the aeroplane feeders, as well as and therefore I'm hoping for a piffling less pelting today. It's been raining, raining, raining, inwards keeping amongst the "April showers select May flowers" idiom. Here inwards the beautiful Pacific Northwest, Apr "showers," mightiness move to a greater extent than properly called Apr "deluge." Let's simply promise it's worth it.
