Quilting, writing and a new floor...

I finished quilting my sister's wedding gift for my niece and fiance. I can't show the front as she hasn't seen it, though she picked out the quilting pattern, so she knows she's getting a quilt. I like this panto because it is busy and fills in well. Plus you can't see the rows as well.

I have also been working on writing the patterns for the new sampler...almost finished, just have 2 blocks left. That's as much work as making the quilt by the time I add illustrations. Too much thinking some days!

I hung some class models last night when I went in to teach class. I will be starting 4 new samplers next month.

The floor guy came yesterday and started my kitchen/bathroom floor. I am so excited, over a floor! Silly, I know. It should be finished by tomorrow or Friday.

  3. I like that panto. Looking forward to seeing the flip side.
    You're not silly, being excited over a floor. Updates and change in our homes is usually a big positive. My stomach did excited flipflops when we painted our kitchen cupboards. Floors are just as exciting!

  5. Great quilting...can't wait to see the "good" side!

    And yes, even floors can be exciting, 'specially if it's yours!

    Writing patterns can be a real brain strain. Hope it goes well!
