thimbleberries


mom ended up having 2 customer quilts to complete yesterday. don't tell, but she totally forgot about one until the customer called at 9am yesterday to ask if it was ready lol!

funnily, mom ended up quilting one quilt on my machine and i did the bigger one on hers . it was/is a huge quilt-95x104, didn't get all of it in the picture

also learned a very valuable lesson about quilting when you are tired(had had 4hrs of sleep the night before. i was not awake at all!) we pulled the quilt off, i took my pictures and mom suggested i take one from the back(plain backing, the quilting showed up fantastically). we flipped the quilt over and discovered that i had skipped an entire row in the quilting! thankfully it was a pretty easy fix *whew*!

make hay while the sunshines




was out at work yesterday and the farmers where haying the field across the street. B and i watched them shape the bales and our favorite, wrap them in the plastic. had to get a few pictures

Libby love


*whew* our internet went down yesterday and was gone allllllll day-eek! glad to have ti back!

got Libby all put together yesterday. had a moment of panic when we discovered one of the bolts to hold the quilt rollers on was broken. but dad to the rescue and he filed the screw threads and saved the day.

was able to get another Hamels quilt done as well. was a bit of a challenge since halfway through the quilt i discovered that the stylus was shifting-we weren't able to figure out how to get to stay in one spot. made for completing the quilt an adventure lol!
