    Default I Love my job-Harriet

    I have been machine quilting for ten years this year. I wake up every morning and go into my studio to quilt quilts that aren't mine. I see so many beautiful quilts! Tomorrow I will wake up, and go back to work on this.....
    By the way, I sprayed starch on the pink border- it is straightening out!

    Harriet, your work rocks! It is my hope that "one day" you would perform your magic one one of my quilts.

    You do beautiful work. I have never nor do I think I will ever make a quilt that would live up to your quilting. So glad you enjoy your work. I am sure that is one of the reasons you are so good at it. BrendaK

    After 5 years of machine quilting, I woke up with an aching back.

    Awesome job! The quilting makes it so beautiful and puffy. So, on those fuller parts, will you add some extra quilting there? (Just wondering because sometimes I have issues like that!)

    Harriet I have used the curve pattern but it has never looked so fantastic. What batting have you put inside please?

    I sprayed some starch on the full border. It pulled it in some and I will quilt it down today.
