Love Child revisited

 I ordered my Glide thread and magnaglides bobbins a week ago yesterday... they arrived three days later... this time, it was for Violet 40255 because I thought this color would blend the best with the red/purple blocks and with the scrappy blocks.  The thread came late Monday morning and by evening, it was quilted... the binding and label had to wait for the next day.

I'm pretty pleased with it... there are some OOPS here and there but I'm living the " better done than perfect" and I don't think too many other people are even going to notice the boo boos.

After finishing the binding and label on Tuesday morning, this quilt went onto the frame...

I just did an overall large meander... probably too large because I wasn't happy with it after I'd taken it off the frame and added the label and binding later that day... so it went back on the frame for more big meandering on Thursday after I finished the next quilt.

This was Wednesday and Thursday's quilting project... I had most of it done on Wednesday, but I'd been doing a lot of standing all week and by Thursday, I was pretty stiff and sore... I think I only had three wheels to quilt inside of, but since it was basically micro-quilting, I decided it could wait overnight.  It did and I finished it up on Thursday.

I spent the balance of Thursday and all of yesterday just chillin' .. had to go to recycling, the lqs and Walmart today so, after all that was done and I had taken a nap ( darned high heat/humidity is giving me sinus headaches), I got my dear hubby to help me take these quilts outside for their photo ops.

Tomorrow afternoon, we're going to one of our grandsons' high school graduation open house... it's about a two hour drive so I don't think we'll be doing much of anything else tomorrow.

Hopefully, Tuesday  I can finish slicing up the 9 patches for the Disappearing 9 patch quilt along that's being hosted by Julie Cefalu at the Crafty Quilter.  This week we get to decide on our layout.  Like I said, I still have slicing to finish up, but that won't take long and I already know what layout I'll use... I THINK.  We'll see for sure later this coming week.. maybe Wed.

And, now it's my turn to show off one of my cats... Mr. Prissy thinks he's my sewing room supervisor and sometimes my long arm supervisor... here he is watching a video that I'm listening to while I sew.  

I sometimes wonder just what he's thinking when he's watching the computer screen...  It's kind of like that corny joke I've heard several times in the past few months ( because it's on one of my favorite dvds) " Did you ever eat cured ham and wonder what it was cured of?"... sorry, I think it's funny.  I'm pretty sure that's not what Mr. Prissy is thinking, but I am kind of curious as to what it really is.

Ok, time to call it a night here....

take care....
