First, I finished quilting my Easy Street Mystery the other day and got the binding sewn down last night while watching the rest of season 3 of Downton Abbey. A friend "had connections" and got it early so we had a marathon watching session last night. Now we have to wait for a whole year for season four.
You can't even see the quilting. |
Then about two years ago a boss of mine retired and was also going to move so she cleaned up some of her sewing stuff and gave me a bunch of scraps and some blocks and a quilt that was actually started by her mom. Her mom was hand quilting as she went and had 2 rows done. They are hand appliquéd. She had two down and the rest cut. I just bound the two rows and will keep that one for myself since its also hand quilted and I added borders to the two blocks and machine quilted it and will donate to our guild for their monthly raffle.
And for some more cuteness, here's a stray cat we've been feeding. I call her fluffy because she really is compared to all the others. She also lets me pet her when I bring her food.
Will be leaving for Road to California on Wednesday. I am driving down with three other ladies and will hook up with others when we get there. So looking forward to getting away and hanging with my friends.
Thanks for looking.
Love your quilt! It turned put great. I'm glad I'm one of the other ladies
