Monday night sewing at my place has been really fun. It is the highlight of my quilting life right now and makes me so much more productive!! Last night I helped my new friend make her first quilt top. I'll share more about it on Friday.... But today, still geeked from sewing night I got something quilted! I wanted to make a coverlet for the guest bedroom. And I wanted it to be plain, because I keep the Forties Fruity Filmstrip at the end of the bed, and I wanted the quilt to be the big deal, and the coverlet to just look nice with it.
With talk of a possible visit from Nate's Godparents in early July, I finally had the motivation to get this thing quilted. I told you I just need a deadline or two!
I just did simple stitching across in a natural wavy line. It was a bit boring, but I got through it with a little gossiping on the telly this afternoon. Thanks Erin and Jackie!!
While I liked the price tag on this project since I used two ten dollar sheets from Target... I must say I wouldn't recommended it. The sheets are nice but boy did I get big bubbles threatening big puckers. I'm glad its over now. Maybe I'll bind it in the near future... but maybe not. You know I'm a procrastinator, so it might not happen until late June.
YAY for getting some sewing done... and YAY for warm weather! We have a fun packed summer planned for the Monster.
