ADDING LOOPS

So far this week, this is all I have been doing. I do it while waiting.....I hate to wait....

My husband had off yesterday and so I waited on him while he ran a few errands.

We went out and then when I got home, I was waiting for my sons to get back. Did I say I hate waiting.

So each time I pulled this puppy out and would just play.



I can not begin to tell you how many bloopers there are in this quilt. Some I frogged out and then others....well....they passed the test of not looking tooo bad.

So....next is just to stitch the piano keys in the ditch and then the binding.

Today I may go to D.C with the boys or stay home and cook the one visiting his favorite foods. We will see.

  12. Your quilting looks great! I practiced making some of those loops today on a scrap quilt. I doubt I'll be showing my work. Need a lot more practice!

  15. Your loops look good from here. I love loopy quilting but sometimes my loops have flat spots. Practice, practice, practice I guess.

  17. Ah ha! Thanks for sharing this insight on how you get so much done. You definitely are more productive than I am, while waiting. I'm going to work on this. Now, I just need to figure out how I can send my DH on more errands!

    Beautiful FMQ too!
