Good Day from a very warm Ontario. A perfect day to stay put and do quiet things.
I quilted this wee quilt with spirals in the body, and continuous curves in the border. Apparently in the corners where I did the arcs to finish, one corner has more arcs....sheesh. Better an extra (which can be removed) then not enough I say :))
This is a quilt I made for a couple expecting their first. The papa was a favourite school teacher of my children. The baby arrived a few days ago, the quilt wrapped and ready is still sitting on the sideboard. I am just not sure when it would be good to drop in on the new parents.
I don't care to phone ahead, as I don't wish to either visit or create anxiety by announcing that I am arriving. I remember being a new mother. It was a long time ago, yet it feels like yesterday when I get to thinking about it.
This is my first attempt at a bargello style quilt. I see another one in my future.
I used what I learned from Jamie Walden's "ThreadFusion" to quilt a hearts meander on it. I neglected to take a 'back' picture, ha I am not unwrapping it to do so, the back is a turquoise blue with multi coloured hearts.
Happy Hump Day
