QltrSue--thanks for asking about my elbow. It is getting better, but still not healed enough to do paper piecing...too much cutting all together. My shoulder is still bothering me too. I have been getting some quiting in though. I got a top together at my retreat a couple weeks ago and then last week I have been sashing/quilting a mystery block swap I participated in during 2013. I am ready to add borders, but as usual something else came up I need to work on.
I quilted each block individually with just batting on the back and will add the backing in one piece. Like she does on this site:
http://maureencracknellhandmade.blog...-tutorial.html This is the first time I've tried this. It's good I did it this way as I realized after taking this picture that I had 2 blocks mixed up and they were easy to switch! The green in the bottom right and the purple above it are now switched.
