I know it is pretty sad to get so excited to see Friday come, but oh well, that is how it is these days. I got the Lone Star about half quilted, so hopefully will be able to finish it this weekend. I like this panto, but sort of wish I had a larger span so that I could do some kind of fabulous free motion design in those big squares and triangles, but I think this will look good too. Sometimes these quilts have applique in those spots, but I didn't want that with this one.
The back is a chocolate brown, & the thread is a gold variegated, so the quilting will show up well.I got a new camera last weekend, so these are my first pix on it. I think I am going to like it.
I am getting together with friends tonight for our stitch and chat so that will be fun. I am going to work on a fall runner I started this week. We also have cottage blocks to exchange.
BTW, that is not a mess in the back corner, but a storage area....that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
good job on the quilting and the quilt. I have a storage area like that I put those 3 drawer bins under the back side of my longarm there are some bins under there as well. vbg
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful. You do such wonderful work.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Jean! You do great work w/that machine and those pantos :) Love the way the quilting shows up so well on both the back and the front! Ohhhhhhh and Friday truly cannot come fast enough these days :) In our house, we refer to Saturday's as "Sew Sew Saturday!" Have a nice w/e :)

ReplyDeleteI love the quilting on your lone star. Can't wait to see the fall runner.
This is gorgeous!!! As for the mess, I didn't see anything and had to scroll back and look when you mentioned your "storage" area!!! Guess that's because I have several areas like that myself!!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt sure is looking fantastic, can't wait to the whole quilt.

Lovely work Jean. One day I will be able to do that too ( I have my fingers crossed, and I have been practicing)
ReplyDeleteWow...your lone star is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to try one, but just know that the bias and I would end up in a fight!
Gorgeous! I'm working on a (sort of) Lone Star too, and I was so excited to find your post in my feedreader. As always, your work is impeccable.
ReplyDeleteJean - Another beautiful quilt. Your color choices are always so beautiful. P.S. I looked twice - I didn't see any mess anywhere!
