Oh good grief I have another project to finish. A good friend at church brought me a quilt that originally was her grandmothers. It was in terrible condition. Robin and her daughter took it apart and saved the best blocks and hand pieced it back together again about 30 years ago. Her health has deteriorated and she is desperate to get it quilted. To do the quilt justice it should be hand quilted but asked me if I would machine quilt it very simply in the ditch. Spent several hours last night removing all the straight pins they had used to baste it together, trying to add more batting and fabric on the sides. Sandwiched and basted it. Fun to discover I had made a quilt with a reproduction of one of the fabrics in the quilt.
