Wow Sue, that's a lot of snow and ice. Good reason to stay in the house!
Bev, I'm scared to try quilting with Minkie on the back. Yours looks wonderful, tho. |
They're talking 6-10 inches of the white stuff here..Just couple in the previous one. The blowing snow will be more treacherous than the actual amounts. Guess I'll have a snow day tomorrow...

Bev, that is looking wonderful! I still only do SITD, or trace something on the border to follow! Don't think I'll ever get the hang of FMQ!

Bev, I'm scared to try quilting with Minkie on the back. Yours looks wonderful, tho. Also if ya have a good edge to edge quilt pattern that has no backtracking ya can quilt it w/the Minkie on top. There is no drag that way. I am using the seam lines as a guide for my quilting this time so I have to do it w/the flimsy on top. |
Good minkie tips, Bev! I think your quilting looks great. Didn't realize you weren't using batting with the minkie, but it makes sense, as it has it's own loft.

I've got a crazy busy day planned today. First I am gonna go & paint at DD's house. I will do about 3 hours. Then I have to change outta my paint cloths & then go help DM find the recommended hair dresser that we had heard of. Her hair dresser has had heart trouble & won't be back doing hair. Then we are gonna go find the spline to get her quilt into the frame that I gave her for her b-day. Finally we are gonna walk at Walmart.

Bev, you have so much energy! :D

Jeanie, I like SITD. I think it makes the piecing pattern look nice.
We have 3/4"of ice, literally, on the whole driveway. Over that, we had snow, some more rain that turned to ice, more snow, and more snow. It took me forever to shovel the driveway, but I couldn't get the bottom layer of ice off, so it's very dangerous to walk there. Great for ice skating though! lol My car is parked on the driveway. I take baby steps every time I need to go out. I had a week of sinus and ear infection, and finally am on the mend! So grateful to the Lord I'm getting better. :-) |
Glad to hear you're feeling better givio.
Snow on top of ice is so treacherous! Do be careful as you walk to the car! Sun shining...got bookwork to do. later.. |
Glad you are feeling better, Givio! Stay upright on that driveway!
