March
Well just to keep up to date...I have begun again the quilting of my DWR quilt.
So..as I had sadly taken out the first basting stitches...which had been done for me on a friends
longarm machine ( and which I SHOULD have left in)
I have redone the basting just in the blocks...with Ella ( my SS) behaving wonderfully
Love those basting stitches.
Then I started on this... Its Mother Superior's ( from Superior Threads) BOM.. and for March there are 12 blocks.. all cut out.. some of them wrongly and I have had to piece together bits to make up for what I messed up
I am NOT a patchworker.... I am a quilter...
don't like piecing.
You may be able to pick up some boo boo's I made. The dark brown triangle is pieced with an extra bit... and the whole oranangey piece is sewn together in 2 triangles...its a make do... but hopefully it wont be noticed.
I am hopeless with patterns .. always seem to read them incorrectly.
Thats the sum of my work today... 2 blocks of 12
I will tackle more tomorrow.. at least these two are actually 12 1/2 inches as they are meant to be.
So I will catch up more when I have something more to catch up with!
We have rain at last...result of the Cyclone from up Forth.. which is down to a low here.. and severe weather forecast.. good for sewing!
I will continue today with my DWR... which is really heavy to manage at present, and do more blocks tomorrow.
