Sometimes I think I spend more time on line looking at blogs then I do with my quilting. Everytime I tell myself to get off of the computer and start work on one of my many projects I end up getting back on the computer later in the day. I have gotten some work done though on the scrappy flower quilt. One border is appliqued in place and I got started on another side of the border. The large quilt on the frame is going nicely I have one section left to do – I am on the final 12 inches of the quilt and of course though that is about 108 inches long! but then I will be ready to take it off of the frame and get the binding on it. I have another quilt ready to go on the 3 roller frame when this quilt comes off. It is a scrappy Irish Chain, about twin size – I have forgotten the measurements. I have fabric for the backing but I need to stitch it together. I have discovered that my placement of pieces of the Irish Chain is not correct. Tough I’m not going to change it now. The problem is that I was going to make this a queen size then decided not to and took part of the blocks off to downsize it to a twin size instead. This will be my humility quilt showing that I make mistakes!! It should have one more row of tiny blocks all the way around to make the blocks exactly right. In the large white blocks I will do some kind of quilting design that will show off my quilting – maybe feathers or a flower.
