Hello ladies. I thought I would try and join in the weekend sew-in with you. I just finished the hand sewing the binding on a baby quilt I have promised a charity board member friend for her new grandson. Now only two to go. The other two are promised to a friend who lives down in california near the fires. He is an international star singer. He is good friends with most of the diabetes staff. Hubby and I think the world of him for he is a lovely person and generous with his time.
I am making a set of three new potholders for myself. The old ones will not come clean anymore. Hubby is pretty rough on them. He has taken to cooking every weekend on the Trager. I will not complain, I love not having to cook for a couple days in a row. So, I will happily make new potholders. I will machine the binding on in prep for the hand finish.
I have the second baby quilt all pressed and the backing prepared. I just need to cut the batting and throw into the machines to shrink it a little.
I will make some breakfast while the batting is fluffing. I will try and find the backing for the last little boy quilt in between. These are not show quilts, just baby quilts so the quilting is pretty easy to get through.
Happy sewing ladies. I will check in later to see what you have done.
