Hey everyone!
Friday, I went to the Quilt Guild and I had a wonderful time! The ladies there are so wonderful...I can't explain in words what they are truly like!
We all normally work on something different..some work on embroidered blocks for quilts, some work on patten blocks, some help others with hand quilting tips and tricks, some work on binding....I work on Dear Jane blocks and help others when needed. Like today, I helped one of our ladies put the bobbin in a matching she was unfamiliar with. I also had a little show and tell for today since I did not attend last week due to going to Hotlanta to watch my Braves play ball.
I have finally finished hand quilting all the blocks for my daughters quilt and have begun sewing the blocks into rows as you can see on my previous blog. My goal for the upcoming week is to get all the rows sewn together so I can determine what size the beach/ocean scene in the center will be. Then I will cut all the material for that and sew it together and it will be stitched in the ditch for quilting on this particular piece. I really want this done before she goes to the mountains in September for her fall vacation.
I don't know how much I will get done on the quilt today as I have other tasks that I must get done as I have put them off long enough and now I really have no choice but to get them done and no....they have nothing to do with sewing or quilting....dang it!! I had rather be doing that stuff then doing the things I have put off. I love to procrastinate when it comes to something besides being in my happy place.
I received my first box from the Fat Quarter Shop!!!!! I love the Sew Sampler box! It has a lot of need stuff in it and it's well worth the monthly subscription.......I am glad my husband subscribed to them for me.......it made me HAPPY!!!!! If I get a chance, I will post a picture of the contents at the end.
