My girl April is back. She's so well rested and ready to go. She sounds so good with all her new boards, belts and stuff. She even has interchangeable feet. Can't wait to give the those a try when I do the custom quilting for Lorisquarepant.

| April's back - yahoooooo!! |
I have two quilts finished, the
Awesome lap quilt and Little Boy Blue Chevron quilt - done. I used the same pantograph on both Curly Q. The little boy blue quilt is turned 90 degrees, I think it makes it looks a bit like a wave pattern, with the teals and blues I thought it was perfect. Little Boy Blue has Hobbs Polydown batting and the
Awesome Lap Quilt has Hobb's 80/20 batting. I had scraps big enough for both. I really like getting the king size rolls simply for this reason. The scraps are usually big enough for a small lap or baby quilt and don't have to be pieced. Although as you can see, sometimes really close! Love it.

Great quilts - I've done the Awesome pattern and it works up so quick. Your design wall has some fun things going on.
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed that you get all that piecing done along with fancy quilting. and going to work? I say you must sneak out of bed during the night and go sew.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you have April up and running again-I used my Ima yesterday for the first time in over 2 weeks, it felt so good-so I know how you are feeling. Nice work on getting those quilts done!

ReplyDeleteThey both turned out great and yeah for April's tune up.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you can get to quilting again. It is amazing how that panto looks in the different directions. Both quilts look great!
ReplyDeleteBoth quilts are beautiful, but I do love the simplicity of the blue chevron.
ReplyDeleteLove that zig zag quilt and your quilting! Really get the 'wave' look from it!!
