Default 4th of July Quilting...what are you working on today?

Finally starting to quilt this scrappy quilt today. I hope I can at least get it finished quilting unless I need more thread and then a trip to JoAnnes will happen LOL.

Your quilt is very pretty. I don't see any safety pins. What do you baste your quilts with to quilt it on your sewing machine? I am a sewing machine quilter, also. some I take to a friend to do on her longarm and when I get in the mood I hand quilt.

Quilter53, I use basting spray. So much easier than pinning.

DebraK, Love those colors!

I shamelessly took the idea from someone here ;-) it is only half of the size of the desired center and I'm still in idea limbo over border treatment ;-) The other on is a UFO from 5 years ago. They need love too ;-)

Nice quilt! I am finishing setting up my quilt studio. I moved a few things around. I retired my Bernina and put up my new Sapphire 875 which will be next to my older Sapphire 830. I loved it so much I decided to get the quilters edition. Besides my Bernina is plum worn out. Hubby is away for 7 days so I am going to pull all my scrap bins (4 large ones) out to the living room. I hope to get them all cut and organized before he gets home. I want to work on my 2 quilts from the VT quilt festival classes. I have many others to quilt as well. So glad to be home and sewing. Enjoy your day! Luann in CT
