See? a person should always save their thread! What a perfect match for my little QuiltForKids project.
My crooked neck, sore shoulder didn't get any worse after making and quilting and finishing the little QuiltForKids project so I dragged out this QOV, that has been lanquishing in a pile with other unquilted tops. What is there about threads sewn along a curved line that is so appealing? You see, I'm just starting - this particular pattern is one I do well, but gets lost on a busy top. In some areas it's almost invisible, and then it is ME who gets lost. Still, I feel so much happier now that I can sew again.
I am a quilter - a retired widow living in the Nebraska Panhandle. I am surrounded by beautiful semi-arid ranch country, and treeless hills and fields under incredibly wide blue skies, located far from the upheaval found often in large towns or cities. I am blessed to have delicious time to quilt and to appreciate my peaceful moments in an unpeaceful world.
You GO girl!

What color thread did you use on the red/white/blue? I did a bit of machine quilting this weekend, too. Got a wallhanging quilted.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear you can quilt again! --Just don't over-do. Eh, you know I had to say that, 'cause well, that would be my proclivity. :P
ReplyDeleteGlad your aches and pains seem to be going away. Happy quilting!
ReplyDeleteLooking good!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are able to sew again, and if not all well, at least a little better. I was wondering how the long armers do their free motion without getting lost...hmmm...
ReplyDeleteThe Thread was perfect...I found the addy and ordered a kit to do a Quilt for kids..should be fun. I would need many register lines to stay in focus doing a quilting pattern....almost need a GPS to free motion quilt. Sew Peacefully
ReplyDeletewhat's that song--"back in the saddle, again!" Woohoo--sewing is back and spring is coming!
ReplyDeleteGreat work! I hope I get my mojo working again soon.
ReplyDeleteLove those curvy lines!!
Very cute I used the same thread on my quilt for them. Glad you got to sew!
ReplyDeleteAhh, I'm delighted I stopped in today of all days! Beautiful quilt, beautiful quilting and a great day to celebrate the feeling of wellness!
ReplyDeleteHappy for you and with you my friend. Warmly and with much joy! *karendianne.
