Something New

I was removing the quilt from Marty's bed yesterday and I kind of hit my thread scissors moving from the back to the front. Maybe cedar wood wasn't a good idea?

I probably couldn't ever do this again

They must have went flying for them to stand there so upright. 

I decided, since I had already started it, to finish Ann's quilt on Marty. It wasn't as big of a pain as I had experienced in the past moving a quilt from one machine to the next. Maybe I'm getting better at it? The reason I was going to do this quilt on DW was for some digitized work in the big squares, but I think I got it covered....

In the main panel

Sashing and the first big block

The second big block

I didn't get a pic of the third big block, but I simply did some water meander like I did in the Tilda swimming girl. 

I was pretty tired yesterday (???) so I knocked off long arming around 4:45 and moved over to working on a new kit I picked up on Saturday for the new baby we're expecting. It's pretty easy and I've added it to the tote going to retreat; all cut up and ready to assemble. 

Once I finished that I cut out for the next BOM block in the kit I received at Creative Escapes retreat last January. I was going to sew it together but at that point it was nearly 7:30 and I was just too tired. 

I have the last panel and border/sashings to do on Anns quilt and I'll move over to Bernie while I'm frame ironing for Anns second quilt which is a QOV. DW should be stitching this one out honestly, but I don't have a new encoder yet, so I'll just have to put something in there myself.
