Wide Variety

I did a wide variety of quilting things yesterday. First, remove Donna's quilt from DW and get the next backing loaded and started on the frame ironing.

Oh wait, I need to wash and dry this backing for the customer before I can do that. While that was in the washer and dryer I trimmed Donna's quilt, got it billed out, and packed up. She has been called (LM). Once the backing was done drying it was loaded and started the wrinkle free process.

Meanwhile, I worked this on Bernie... 

Another Tilda Snowmen
Here's the start of what's going in here...
Just like the picture
This is how I did the quilt for Bittersweet Quilt Shop and this is what Lynette wanted.

Once the backing was done on DW this was loaded and will be worked today...
Sharon's Flower Power
This one is going to be minimally quilted, BUT there are four layers of fusible in there, so it's going to be slow going around the circles. And look at all those thread changes!

After that was basted in and threads were selected for today's work I got the binding on the baby quilt that was on Foster...

It's a quilt
Jim was very late getting home last night so I started to play with all those threads I've been saving...
Doing some playing in the sunshine 
I love/hate the time change. Love because I get a lot more sunshine in the studio for my work day. 

Here's what it finished out to...

Isn't this weird?
Can you tell it's an apple? Not sure what I'm going to do with it, but I think it's fun. I did not put any batting or a back of any sort on it. It's just a "thing" right now. I'll have to think about this. 

Meanwhile, I'm probably pretty much done with anything on Foster. I'm so excited to be getting the new machine and I know his capabilities so I'm holding off doing any more of my quilts until he arrives.

I attempted to lay out the scrap quilt I'm doing with Susan Smith of Stitched by Susan, but I was having a heck of a time turning things around in my brain and couldn't seem to get stuff right on the design wall (yes, I cleared it off to work on this). Jim is going to have to help me with this one I think. My brain just doesn't work that way.

Off to enjoy another sunny (yet, colder) day in my beautiful place to create.
