Well, I am officially on summer break. I have the next 5 weeks off and I am planning on making the most of it.
I am working on 2 new curve-pieced projects but I will have to save those for later.
The first of about 15 UFO’s went on The Beast (name for my long-arm) today. I am planning on quilting at least half of the quilts on the long-arm and the others on my Bernina. Some of these quilts have been waiting 5 years to be finished.
I recently made my first slip cover. I found an old ottoman at an area thrift store for $5 and had planned to recover it, but instead used a stripped polyester shower curtain and made a slip-cover. I love it! It is the perfect colors for my living room and I can easily remove it to wash it. The two little dogs like sitting on it!
I also made a ribbon toy for my niece with my single fractured block. I love all the ribbons around it and she does too. I think I will start making these with my baby quilts to match for shower gifts.
