I was able to get a lot of sewing done this morning. I finished quilting the Box Kites top that I made from my Mailblocks on-line swap lottery winnings. I tried something different with the quilting on this and won’t try it again.
I thought I could free-motion some straight lines – only to find that you really must have a ruler to do this successfully. And I didn’t plan ahead for what I was going to do when I got to the sashing (the sashing was necessary for the small differences in sizes since different people made the blocks). I think I could do this again if I plan to make curvy lines instead!
Here's a detail (that I probably shouldn't show ...):
And I got the binding on both the Box Kites and the Rows of Posies quilts. Oh, happy day!
These will go to WTIL after I finish one more to fill a box. But now it’s back to that other project I had in mind … I've only cut a few blocks and I think I’m going to like them. I’ll show the WIP soon.
