Cyndy's quilt finally finished!!

  Yea!! I finally finished Cyndy's quilt and delivered it to her.  I enjoyed making it, and should have finished it much sooner, but I have to work in little snippets of time.

Countdown!!

Well, the top is finished.  I went with the feather stitch on my machine instead of the blanket stitch as I had thought I would.  It just seemed to look better.  After it is sandwiched, and quilted, I can add the yo yo's.  Almost done, Cyndy.

I noticed my pecan tree had budded out this morning, and you know what that means!!  No more winter. 

Until next time,  Dorothy

Half way done!

Well, I believe I'm about halfway done.  I just have to blanket stitch down my tomatoes, sew on the borders, put it together and quilt it.  Wait, maybe not halfway done. I did try to do the blanket stitch by hand but my stitch's are so uneven.  So I think I'll do it on the machine.  Here are the tomatoes (pincushion's) and the center of the quilt.

Till next post, Dorothy.

Cyndy's Quilt


                                                                                                     Hello all,

Here I am, starting work on Cyndy's quilt.  I'm using a pattern from a library book here at Bradford County Public Library, where Cyndy and I both work.  Of course, I will have to add my own little changes to the quilt because I can't follow a pattern exactly.  Anyway, I thought it would be fun to let you follow along on my progress.
Stay tuned!
