Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds

Finally finished the binding, washed and dried – and on the table.

On the table

Country Charmer is coming along great and I decided how I was quilting the stars.

I had several people ask how do you sew a curve like the Drunkard’s Path with no pins in it – I learned how when I saw a video for a special presser foot called the Curve Master Foot.  I bought the foot and soon realized you really didn’t need the foot – I actually sold the foot to someone else that wanted it.  You can do the same thing with a regular 1/4 inch foot –if you have one with a little guide on the side that is great but not necessary just watch your seam —  here is a link to the video that shows you how to do it.  I can do my 6.5 inch Drunkard Path blocks in less than 30 seconds each – so yes I should probably be done with 300 blocks by now LOL – but you know me I just can’t sit at the machine long –   Tweezers do come in handy though for the tail end of the stitching!!  (For a less expensive version, see the Dreamstitch Presser Foot.)
