I did finish the blue "I'm Blushing" quilt and finally got around to taking photos.
During the past couple of evenings I worked on the Stocking Quilt. It is all finished and ready to be sandwiched. I had thought about hand quilting it, but I think I'll machine quilt it and hand quilt the brown star quilt.
I had really planned to get the final border on it and take it to the lake with me to start quilting. It was one of the first quilts I made from a reader's blog. (Amanda Jean from Crazy Mom Quilts) I think I just need one side on the last border and it will be ready to sandwich.
I can't believe I have been out of school for almost two weeks already. I know the summer is going to fly by. I have been to the library and have finished a several good books already.
Happy snipping, stitching, and quilting!
One of the best things about having the summer off is knowing you have time to read some good books. And that's also one of the best things about retirement. :) You're I'm blushing quilt turned out great - I've got several stacked up and ready to take to the mission with me. I'm determined to get a lot of machine quilting done while I'm there! blessings, marlene
