This is not the first time his perfect points have made me jealous either . The quilt he made last fall is 98% perfect points too ! Last falls quilt was HST, and this is his FIRST time EVER making geese. He is some sort of quilting prodigy or something !

Here are some of his completed strip sets , awaiting the rest of their colors so he can begin putting it all together.

Here he is busy at the machine, now that I have got up from it myself, he was waiting patiently all day for machine time !

I have a feeling he is going to do very well in the fair this year ! This will be his first time entering a quilt at the fair and he is being VERY precise and wanting to make sure he has it done in time. I told him he has lots of time, it does not need to be finished till August !
Wishing him great success and I hope he places Best of Show. He is only making sure he has everything done in plenty of time without having to rush and stress out over finishing at the last minute. There are those who do not work well under pressure. Now when is he going to get his own machine, so he doesn't have to wait in line to use yours? You now have an idea for a B day or Christmas gift for him. How old is he? Love his work so far, any pictures of quilt he has made or as he made one yet?
