On My Machine

This is the first time I've quilted in month!  I had sinus surgery on December 11th....  When my Dr said it would take at least a month before I started to feel better he wasn't kidding!

Now I need a nap!

Ta Done

I finished this String Quilt yesterday for one of my best customers....

I love the texture created from the simple swirls.   Adds so much movement to the design.  

I used Superior King Tut thread on the top and FilTech Glide in the bobbin.  It's the first time I used this combination and I love it!  Perfect tension!!!

Swirl Ribbon Candy

I was asked about the Swirl Ribbon Candy in my previous post.   I did a video a few years ago showing how I did it, so I thought I share it again....

On the Machine Today

This should be finished by the afternoon.... 

 

I love all the colors in this quilt!!!

I got Blake Island but you really can't see West Seattle to the left of the island.  (wish they would get rid of those power lines...)

Another good pic of Blake Island.
