Finally got to quilting the baby quilt this morning and it went by quickly. I just echo quilted around the balloons. What was so weird was being able to bring it outside and lay it on the grass to take a pic of it in January!!
I really found out how important my quilt league night is to me and getting things done. This past month, I didn't stick with it and got near to nothing done. So, starting this week, the Wednesday night quilt league is back in effect! One whole evening of nothing but sewing. Yay! I have lots and lots on the back burner that I hope to finally get caught up on.
Today is a cleaning/sewing day. Not sure how much else I will get done, but I will take anything! Tomorrow Shellie is coming over for a sew in so hopefully will get tons done since the quilt shops will be closed and we can't buy any more! lol
I am keeping track of how much I spend on quilting to the penny this year. I know some people worry about how much stash they have, but that is not a concern to me..the cost is. So, we will see how I do.
I have been asked to teach a class on my Geese Crossing quilt (YIKES!! Me...TEACH??), so instead of grabbing the next box, I will have to get this quilted so it can hang in the shop first. Then I have to figure out fabric amounts, how to teach...I don't think I can do this! Here is a reminder pic of Geese Crossing:
Okay..off to work I go!
Congrats on the finish - the texture from the echo is great. How exciting to tach a class - love the quilt and I am sure you will do great!
ReplyDeleteHow awesome that you are going to teach!!!!! I would so take a class from you!! Have fun with Shellie tomorrow - I need to find a time to get with both of you again - it's so much fun and I get so much done when I can pick your brains for ideas!
ReplyDeleteYou can do it. I know you can. Just think of it as sharing what you did with your friends. We are all supporting you in spirit!!
ReplyDeleteDo a preview of the class on your blog, we can all jump in and offer ideas on areas to be careful with. I remember adding this pattern to my TO DO list and then forgetting about it, now that I have the die cutters, it is getting pulled towards the top. I love this one. cw
