    Default WIP for Threadbanger

    I am working on a charity quilt for Threadbanger. She has just begun to quilt and so I volunteered to quilt this charity top for her for just the cost of the batting and label. I hope she likes what I am doing.

    My husband has Alzheimer's and has not been doing well lately, so I am behind with my quilting. I hate to hold up my customers, but hopefully things will settle down and I can get caught up.

    Thanks for looking,

    Judy

    By the way, I quilt on a Sharon Schamber model Prodigy quilting machine.

    Well done! What thread are you using, including the weight - it looks heavier than a 50wt ... thinking perhaps 28wt? I'm curious, I like the result.

    Best of luck with your husband. I admire people who can work with Alzheimer's patients, it takes a special person and I know I'm not that person. Bravo to you.

    Thanks everyone. I will try to remember to post a picture of the whole quilt when I finish. The thread is Essential Pro from Connecting Threads. It is a 70/3 polyester thread. I think it just looks larger because the picture is so close up.
