I'm not going to wait a YEAR to do a project!! And for another Friday the 13th in November we may have to wait a lot longer! Couldn't resist the tease!
I'll be quilting a crib quilt and hand sewing the back "seams" of its Prairie Points together, and hand quilting some more on my Dresden.

I'm glad I saw this, but I wish I had seen it earlier. I would have been more productive lol right now I'm putting together a back of a quilt so I can sandwich it tomorrow. I should also wash some fabric too...but laundry is no fun lol

been getting quite a bit done, though I've not started up the long arm yet. That will be for tomorrow.
Yesterday I got most of the Belle Bella top done, and then realized I'd made a mistake.
the lower row is suppose to go the same direction all around - and two of the sections got swapped when I put them together.
Decided to put it away for the night and this AM got out my electric seam ripper and seam fixer and went to work.
At least I had not pressed it yet, or started on the next round.
Made short work of it, and two hours later I had it back together correctly.
Here it is, all put together.
the center
Though I think this one is my favorite
I've been working on a second smaller quilt that is using up a lot of the scraps from this one, making stars and sashing.

Karamarie, I'm very sorry for your loss.
I thought I'd get to sew with y'all tomorrow but didn't find out til today that I'd been scheduled to work! So no VQW for me this time. I will watch what you all get done.
Love your quilt top, macybaby. It's awesome.
