This is for a new quilt - called Twister - which is VERY easy to do! (TG that I don't have to count new templates!!!!)
Actually - with one hour of intensive sewing - I'm ready to slice and dice - and then it is putting it all back together again and sewing everything up! And I'm trying HARD to leave the rest of this for NEXT time - but already know that won't happen - which is why I'm featuring it on my blog for THIS week!
Before then I need to finish up THESE doo-dads! A little zig zag on the coin purse, and straight sewing on the grab bag and the apron and that's that! Something for today during Sandy weather (and hope I keep my power!)
This one will take longer - hopefully not TOO much longer! However batting and backing mean quilting - and I'm thinking swirly pattern here maybe in black???? to simulate the wind? (COULD put Hurricane Sandy in letters across the bottom????)
This is getting temporarily tabled - mostly because I'm royally mad at it - has to do with the blocks falling apart AFTER I sew together the sashing! Ugh! However - when I do put it together - I'll do the embroidery on it first! NOT last like I was planning!
CP for this month - also tabled - found what I want - drool drool - And I REALLY want to make this quilt! Would be nice if I had the applique skills! So - guess what - I'm going to see if I can locate the pattern - and put that together with my "someday" list! (And THIS time I"m putting an END date on it!)
What I DO plan on doing this week (last part of Halloween and first part of November) is sewing up those outfits! Hopefully!
AND (ta ta ta DAH! - horns blaring here)
MACHINE QUILTING!!!!!!
Walking foot:
And there ya have it!
(Guarantees this will happen dependent on electricity, Sandy, Exhaustion, and just plain whether I decide to do this or not!)
