Yesterday's Quilting

I'm working on a Crazy Quilt for a customer.  I believe the blocks were made by a family member in years past...

She sashed the blocks with black velvet...

Stitching in the ditch around all the patches with Superior MonoPoly. 

I'm doing a feather design in the border and sashing...

Every piece of lint clings to the velvet!!!

I also made a couple more thread catchers...  This time I started with a 12" triangle instead of a 9 1/2".  Like this size much better! :-)

Now I need to find some buttons to sew on these...

How to....

While quilting the Butterfly Kisses quilt I tried my hand at making a few how to videos.  My space is quite small for me, my machine and a video camera set up on a tripod... so some of the shots aren't the best.  I get my arm, hand and handle bar blocking what I'm doing in the first couple vidoes.  Then my skill at editing is still develping... it could be that it's taking me a little time to figure out the editing software.  Now the big challenge is to get the videos in my blog post....
