with flakes falling and plows plowing, not to mention winds howling, it is definitely a
snowy quilty day here in coastal maine. did i mention tomorrow is the first day of spring? oh yeah, we are all too familiar with this kind of weather this time of year. i have only peeked out the window once, trying to avoid looking at it more than necessary. instead, been cozy in my quilting chair working on this gift quilt. it's over 2/3 quilted and thinking about what kind of binding it wants. don't think it will be a march finish, but soon after. **** the setting triangles are all sewn in on the little basket quilt, so ready to baste and quilt--love that companion angle ruler! **** now that scrappy indigo is an official flimsy, moving on to the next project, a secret project, for the upcoming maine quilts show this summer. so, without further delay.....
Beautiful Fall colors you are quilting on there. How large is this one?
ReplyDeleteI tried one of those types of quilt hoops once and I was too uncoordinated to get the quilt in it with just my two hands. Felt like I needed another person there anytime I had to shift it, so I admire people when I see them using it. I could never get the hang of it. : )
You've picked the perfect weather in which to quilt on... I talked to my Mom and Dad at noon today (Lakes Region in NH) they had 7"+; and it was still falling heavy. Looks like we missed winter entirely this year. Stay warm, I love your strippy quilt, well done, Grace!
