Back at it.

I have been away.  I spent a couple of weeks visiting Mom, in Terrace B. C.
Of course it takes a few days to find one self after being away...then I had to take the dog to the clinic. Well you know just one thing after the other, all those things that make up life away from the computer.

I am caught up with my clients quilts and a gift quilt of my own.  These Bunny Quilts are really sweet.  This blue one has a fleece back.  I learned a couple of things, cotton thread isn't a great choice, and the quilt sandwich needs to be very loose, to avoid stretch, otherwise when released from the frame it gathers in on itself.


Well that's today's story.  Happy Tuesday,

A couple of Bunny eyes got caught in the hopping foot. Which was startling, as it didn't happen in the first one.  However this can be remedied.

These are just the cutest quilts...I can just see a little person snuggled
under one of these for storytime.

Starry Starry Night

I believe this is a shadow box quilt, it is to be a gift for a young grandson.  It was just a charm to quilt.
Yes, I do believe I have taken the photo sideways, but I didn't want it dragging on the deck, and then I forgot to rotate the picture.  Hopefully you'll get the picture.(grin)
 What 10 year old won't love this one?
A simple meander with a star.
