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.
Like the slipcover. Will have to remember to ask Emma to show me her postcards when we stop over next month.
