OK, so I didn't do all that well in the first quarter of the Finish-A-Long. But, I'm persistent, so I'm going to set some new goals, and renew my old one in this next quarter.
First, I still want to finish up my son's quilt:
It's at this stage right now - this is half of it. I'm going to quilt it in halves, then put them together. I was procrastinating on this for the longest time, but a couple weeks ago, I came across this book:
Marti Michell has several methods for doing your quilting with less bulk - all of which seem like great ideas. I had seen her demonstrating one on The Quilt Show, but having the instructions written out, with illustrations, really helped me to understand. I don't think it will be all that difficult. (Famous last words!)
Quilts number 2 and 3 are the same pattern, from Judy Martin's Scraps. They are currently at this stage:
These two HAVE to be done by June, as the babies are due then.
Visit the Finish-A-Long at Quilter in the Gap. Thanks Rhonda!
I started quilting a project today. It's the first time using a quilt as you go technique. I'll post photos on Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteYour son's blue quilt is spectacular.
