Did anyone discovery that I forgot to say y'all close either the quilt store or the quilt demonstrate yesterday? I didn't discovery it until much, much afterwards inwards the day. Mind similar a steel trap, I say ya'. So, yeah. I even as well as thence owe y'all 2 posts, but it's going to convey to hold off for a bit. This forenoon I'm heading out early on for an engagement alongside my dermatologist. I convey to become inwards every nine months for a pare check. Yes. Wear your sunscreen. Then tomorrow I'm getting my eyes examined. I imagine past times Fri I'll require my caput examined for scheduling as well as thence many appointments inwards the same week.
So anyway...yesterday. The binding for Quiltemala is off to a adept start. I've turned 2 corners already.
From there, I needed to create upward one's take away heed whether to proceed stitching or produce something else. I opted for the latter because I actually wanted to complete off the zebra quilt. I quilted it on my domestic machine...just unopen to lines inwards the white stripes.
And unopen to McTavishing inwards the ruby background.
It took a dyad of hours, but immediately the quilting is finished. Here's how it looks from the back.
The binding was already made, as well as and thence I merely needed to sew together it to the quilt.
Now, it likewise is create for hand-stitching. It ended upward at 18.5 x 18.5 inches.
In my ongoing serial of mystery projects, I'm adding a quaternary one. This is my minute twelvemonth participating inwards the Teal Mini Swap. It's a fundraiser for ovarian cancer research.
My partner said she likes vivid colors as well as modern blocks, but otherwise didn't specify much. Still, I know what I'm going to do, as well as and thence I'm going to desire to larn started fairly soon. We convey until the terminate of September, but I'm going to require to complete mine sooner than that. Anyway...more later...only, I won't endure able to demonstrate y'all anything except for unopen to petty peeks.
As for today, I convey to become grocery shopping after my doctor's appointment, but I'm even as well as thence hopeful I'll convey unopen to fourth dimension to produce to a greater extent than hand-stitching on the Quiltemala quilt this afternoon.
