Finally the last couple of days I have sat down with “Insanity” and got a little quilting done. I am now done with row 6, which means half way through the next row I will be half way done quilting this quilt!! I started quilting it 5 months ago – but was gone for the month of May so that isn’t bad – actually 4 months of 
quilting – a total of 70 hours and 35 minutes. Yes I am that precise. I keep track of the hours spent on this quilt for prosperity! It took me 490 hours and 40 minutes to piece this quilt so I will keep track of how long to quilt it also — I figured that would be a heck of a lot less time time than hand piecing that many blocks.
Photo on the left is block numbers 13 & 12. Photo on the right are the triangle pieces for that row. I didn’t put a lot of quilting in number 13 and I might got back and add a little more. I think when I get totally done with the quilt I will go back and look it over and decide then if any more quilting needs to be added for it all to look right. Most I have a lot of quilting in and not sure if the ones that don’t have as much will look right.
On the Christmas Baltimore Album border #2 I have been working on too and I’m half way done with that border. I am working on the white flower right now and I’m almost done with that one so tomorrow I will get the last red flower glue basted in place on that. It is moving along nicely. I have been getting in a lot of work on the quilts since last Friday for some reason – I tend to do that – work a lot then read a lot. I go through phases.
From the last post I had I think we all agree we have way too many patterns and not enough time to make them all! I know I will think I have the next project picked out and then by time I get ready to make a new quilt I have changed my mind and moved on to something else that I have seen.
