Good Evening Internet Friends!
I was singing these words at 0200 hours this morning when I finally got all the pieces and borders assembled and sewn onto this quilt.
As you can see in this not very good picture (remember 0200 hours - neither camera or I were awake) one of my quilting buddies decided that it was time to take a rest, and since I was "sew" tired I even let him pause there for a bit:
Here the quilt is by morning light on its way to get quilted:
After picking up extra wide flannel backing at Woodland Quilting and also picking up my version of this quilt that I had sent out to be long armed we headed over to Sparrow Studioz for me to do the quilting. The staff there were super helpful ☺ I had taken a learn to long arm class there last summer but never had the time to go back sooner, so essentially had forgotten everything I had been taught!
Getting quilted:
My son took a turn doing a row of stitching. It's his contribution to this quilt since it is a Wedding Present for my friend ☺
All Done!
I am "sew" super chuffed with myself right now for having done this. I have never long armed before and I did the entire quilt which makes me "sew" happy that every stitch in this quilt has been done by me (or my son)! ♫
Hope this inspires your own creativity...
