It took me a while to figure out what I was going to do with it, but now that I have, I’m really excited to quilt it. I have a few other priority project going on at the moment, but this just might jump the queue a bit. It is just so much better than I thought it would be! Not sure how to quilt it though. Any suggestions?
It’s coming along quite nicely! I’m very excited to put the sashing in, and now to just pick a border!
Okay, so while rummaging through the embroidery designs at work, I found this gem! I’ve been in a fall mood with the rustic leaves, and then I found this other design. I just had to make a quilt! So, I was thinking since it is on point I would do 3 blocks by 3 blocks, and put in some fun fall batiks on the off spaces and the border. What do you all think?
I’ve playing around with the embroidery machines at work. I’ve also become obsessed with tea towels. So what we have here is a lot of tea towel embroidery! I’m getting my house ready for fall, so this Rustic Leaves collection is just perfect! What do you sewists think?
So, I finally got back into sewing. It no longer hurts to sit hunched over a sewing machine. (It’s very hard being 6’6″.) So, I was at work rifling through the latest Anita Goodesigns, and look what I found! Some adorable leaf patterns! The pattern is called rustic leaves, and it is just too cute not to make! Here is one tea towel, and I’m still working on the other one. I’ll post that one soon!
I was slaving over this hot mess of fabric all Sunday! Okay, well about 2 hours on Sunday, and I’m all ready to cut it into panels and then add the embroidery! I cannot wait to take this modern crazy quilt from cool to awesome! It is going to be just fabulous! Now I just have to pick a type of embroidery to do, and I can run with it!
I cut more strips into it, and rearranged them. I only ave to do that about 3 more times and then I can add the embroideries, and then call it a day and quilt this darn thing! I love crazy quilts, but they just take up so much time! And Thread!
I’m just in love with this quilted table runner! I did all of the embroidery and applique on the Designer Diamond Royale. The applique tool is one of the new features, and I am in love with it. Next I am going to do a star themed one for 4th of July and Memorial day. I’m just so excited! Also, I’m going to be teaching a crazy quilt class soon! I’m just so excited for all of the things to come!
I started work on a spring themed table runner at work. I really like the bright colors. If only it would stop snowing here in the Midwest, it might actually feel like spring. I’m doing the circles again, it reminds me of blowing bubbles when the weather is nice on a picnic. What kind of table runner should I do next? I really need to get a Designer Diamond Royale so I can do this at home!
I finished the quilting on this beautiful table runner! I cannot wait to hang it at the store on Tuesday. I have Monday off, so hopefully I’ll get a little bit more quilting done soon! I just love this applique. I think I’m going to do one that is Solar System oriented next. I really like it Or, I can do something spring themed, and use the circles for flowers and flower pedals. We’ll see!
