On Monday eleven rug hookers convened at our house for a great finishing class by the most talented Kathie Meyers.
Here with Coach Matt ( better known as Dad).
On Wednesday I finally finished binding this UFO Christmas wall hanging, a Jan Patek design.
Framed the wonderful antique quilt template gifted to me by Diane onto a block from an old cutter quilt shared by Vicki. I fastened it in through a hole in the template with an antique and worn Mother of Pearl button.
On Thursday Carvin, Blake and I spent the day doing yard work. When Carvin requested a quilt because it is going to be cold soon, I had just the one for him.
Love gifting someone who loves and needs a quilt......knowing it will be well used. That is what it is all about.
Today the Sew Crazies met and stuffed 45 dog and cat beds.
I also made a few blocks that I will share in another post.
I have the same Jan Patek reindeer wall quilt to finish as you just completed. Mine needs quilting. Such a nice design and yours looks very good.
ReplyDeleteOh Jennie, the gift to Calvin warmed my heart and you are such a dear. From the look on his face you can tell it was greatly appreciated. Your UFO quilt is delightfully beautiful!!!!!!!! Saundra
