Need to Buy The Backing
Here is Candy is Dandy.....finished! It only took one week......the class was held on April 21 and I finished the top on April 28. A new record for me.....I know its a small quilt....but its done. Now I need to buy fabric for the backing and then layer it and machine quilt it on my home machine. I am so proud of myself! Now to get busy sewing on other UFO's that need to be finished.Last night some of our Tuesday night quilters were working on the applique from the workshop that was held on April 28. It was a class that was taught by Sandra M the same teacher that I took the thread painting class from. The purpose of this class was to learn to use ribbon to make flowers and make a pillow top. Below is Carol's work. The picture below shows Dotti's work....she's busy sewing down the ribbon flower. The last picture is of Liz W blocks from the class she took at Cloth and Quilt on Sunday April 29. She took a class from my friend Debi called One Eyed Four Patch. Love the colors that she is using. The library floor gets used every week to preview the layout of blocks for quilts. Love these colors....the fabric at the top will be used in the boarders.
Ok... SEVEN DAYS?! It only took you seven days?!?! I made one (ok, maybe more more than that) quilt and I think it took me.. oh... A YEAR!! :) Excellent job! Love the color!
I am a quilter. The grandaughter of a dairyman. I was married to a dairyman but am now divorced and have a daughter. I work for a dairy trade group. Love cows and the country life. I was born here in the big valley and have never lived more then 15 miles away from where I was born. I buy way too much fabric, patterns and quilting books, belong to two quilt guilds and will never have enough time to finish all the projects I want to do.
