The #scrappytripalong got quilted and bound (finished pictures to come after binding)
and o, do you remember the Single Girl? The bane of my existence? Haha, not really. I made it during the Single Girl Quilt Along (well started it). Then I took a break and actually finished it like 6 months later. Since then, it has been sitting in a closet (something like 18 months to 2 years) ignored, largely due to my fear of quilting it. With my new found confidence in quilting, I decided to tackle it today.
Turns out it is really heavy. That aside, I got it done and I am super proud. I don't want to spoil the final product, so I will have pictures up as soon as the binding is on!
And next, the Good Folks quilt. Basted and ready for a turn on the machine. I'm actually hesitant on this one because I have no idea what to put on it. Hmmm. I also still lack binding. I really really want to bind it in the blue fortune or the black buttoned up, however those are very hard to come by. I may just continue to troll etsy and see if anything good comes along.
And what else to do on your first saturday back home but organize scraps?! I have always had them sorted by color, but never by size. A lot of my projects for curves class (which obviously I am ridiculously behind on) use scraps, so I am excited to have them organized and ready for when I dive in!
Now back to enjoying my home sweet home!
Welcome home, and happy quilting!
ReplyDeleteWow. You have done so much since returning home. All your quilts look marvelous and I can't wait to see them when you finish quilting and binding. I hope you are enjoying being back home, to me there's nothing like it.

ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to seeing the single girl quilt finished, I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to conquer this pattern :) Well...maybe after curves class.
