Was a good day. No, scratch that, it was a great day. I worked yesterday; I don't normally work Wednesdays and that would explain why this sums up my work day.
yes, it was that sort of day Wednesday |
Today I had a custom quilt to do. I planned to work late; tomorrow we have no school and I didn't want to have to come back and finish the quilt if I didn't have too. Instead, I knocked out the pretty quilt in 4 hours and go to go home early. And even better, I don't have to work tomorrow!!
Judy did a fabulous job with this quilt and I had so much fun bringing it to life. I did free-hand loopy stars in the outer border and a loopy meander in the black border. Stippled all around the appliqued snowmen and ditched the stars.
My favorite part,
the pretty ribbon stitch through some of the borders.
When I got home, I debated about doing another Swoon block . Instead I got my Full Circle quilt sewn together. I bought the layer cake on a whim and to be honest, I'm not a fan. I wasn't sure what to do with it so last weekend I just started sewing the blocks together. I finished the top this afternoon and still don't like it.
I'm going to have some fun quilting this and if I still don't like it, I have a few charitable places I can drop it off at. Someone will love it!
