It's got the stage where lots of work only looks a little bit difference. All the blocks and the sashing have now been joined, and some of the sashings have been quilted. A bit more quilting to do and then the binding, and it's good to go to it's new home.
I splashed out on some Aurifil quilting threads at Festival of Quilts, and they really are much better than the cheap tat I usually use, but I didn't think to get cream! I'll have to start building up my Aurifil collection!
Next deadline is for a Graduation quilt for 10th September: it's pieced and basted, but only partially quilted.
Congratulations! It always feels so good to get this far into a project! It's going to be such a sweet gift!
ReplyDeleteThat texture quilt is so clever, but you need to be onto more colourful ones.
ReplyDeleteAurifil collection - oh my!
I see the progress you've made. I agree with Hadley! Color! :)
ReplyDeleteI've yet to try Auriful. Sounds like I need to get some!
Looking very good. I know when we can add to your collection of threads!! LOL
