At home I'm stealing moments (between and during my TV shows) quilting or like this morning before I left for work I managed to get part of Block 4 done (Amish With A Twist), finished it when I got home.
I'm curious, "What kind of quilter are you?" I'd love it if you comment here, it's kind of a little survey.
I have been working on Amish With A Twist (as per www.cockadoodlequilts.blogspot.com) but I like to do continuous piecing. Since I'm working on one block at a time, continuous piecing doesn't quite work, unless you add another project and it's not like I don't have a few projects to work on (haven't touched the infamous 9 yet!). I finished my serging of my Radical Rail Fence blocks (144) on Monday morning, so I figured why not.....
It feels good to be getting two things done at once, slows things down just a tad but it;s worth it. Oh and do I make mistakes - yup! Believe it or not I actually had to "unsew" three Rail Fence blocks because I sewed them together wrong - don't ask! I couldn't have picked an easier project, a real no brainer, I mean I don't even have to match up blocks here but I still managed to get a few wrong. It's all fixed now so I can continue, hopefully without making to many more mistakes....
Just have to focus! Tomorrow, I am teaching hand piecing/quilting in the a.m. and Linda's coming in to work on her O Tennanbaum quilt which she was working on today, so it's going to be quite a busy day.....
Saturday is my god daughter's wedding - and Jonathan, as usual, has no clothes ready to wear so I'm not sure how we are going to rectify that new emergency, but we will! Guess I have to find a Same Day cleaner near us, or near the store. Gotta love the drama!
Sunday is the monthly Sit & Sew for the girls! 4 days off and right back into the fray! Gotta get a newsletter done too! That's the agenda.....never a dull moment!
Have a great day everyone!
