Monday again tomorrow and back to work...where does the weekend go...
Peg ......Bright, pretty and fabulous .......your grand neice will love it and lucky
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts on this quilt are still the same, love it!
ReplyDeleteIs it hard to do meander quilting? Will it take much practice? How do you go with getting your sttich length even? Do you quilt the border separate to the rest? It looks like you might have quilted each railfence block on it's own, is this what you did?
Sorry for all the questions; I only do inthe ditch yet and want to learn it all! I can understand why people (lots) send quilts off to be quilted but I think that nothing gives ownership to a quilt than to be involved in all the processes.
