Sandwich Anyone???
No, not that kind of sandwich! A quilt sandwich...
I finished my Star Light, Star Bright 'star' and got it sandwiched and ready to quilt. I usually sandwich my little quilts on the bed on Sunday when I have the bedding stripped off. However, a few weeks ago I sandwiched one of my mom's baby quilts on her dining room table. OH MY GOSH! What a difference that added height makes...I will be going over there to sandwich all future baby quilts and save my poor aching back. I also sandwiched the second red, white, and blue Asterisk baby quilt. Now to get my 'free motion' on and get after it...but not this weekend....maybe next...
I have a larger quilt top ready to go to the long-arm quilter. I would really like to quilt these larger ones myself but I am afraid to try to sandwich a big quilt. Yep, I know! I'm a big old fraidy cat! (Those are 16" blocks!) So I pressed it, bought a backing, and will take it by her house this week - I hope. I chose a black and white chevron for the backing.... pretty....
The Sassy Quilter's Triangle Quilt Along started last Friday - choose fabrics, post a picture, get entered for a prize....not too late to join in....
