This is what I've been doing this week - getting my quilt sandwiched and quilted. My mom did a quilt last week that she backed with flannel, and it was so cozy and comfy, I decided to use flannel on this one. It really is amazingly soft! I used a cotton-poly blend batting that allows me to space out my quilting a bit more and is still really cushy.
Today's goal: To get the machine-sewing done on the binding before work. The hand-sewing will take a while, but at least if I can get it on, the rest is just a matter of finding enough episodes of NCIS to get me through the stitching.
that is gorgeous, I want one!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's really fun. Have you thought about trying sewing/quilting? If you're doing something small, it's pretty low-intensity and it's really fun to see such great results.
ReplyDeleteI have wanted to learn to sew for sooooo long now. This is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it! Can't wait to see the real thing!
