Been sitting in my lazy chair watching hallmark channel all day and hand quilting this beautiful quilt top I inherited! enjoying every minute of it! :)
|
the quilt looks great .... and a nice day for the love series movies :)
|
I have been doing the same thing all day too, did make some roasted vegetable soup, but that is it! Love these movies.
|
Nice job! I have wondered, do you quilt around each hexagon or in zig zag lines when doing a GFG?
|
me too! Love them.. looking so forward to seeing the new movie coming on tonight! YAY.. glad for another series to start! :) ... I did stop long enough to make some home cooked hamburgers..lol

My Saturday was spent with my grandson who asked to spend the night last night. We looked for items to use when we carve/paint pumpkins next week. Then I took him to lunch, then we went to his brother's football game. Came home and discovered my son was here with his little boy so spent the rest of the afternoon playing with him! It doesn't get much better than that! When the kids aren't here the next best thing is sewing. I'm working on making a bunch of hexies for some sort of quilt - don't know how I'm going to put them together but I love the looks of them.
|
my favorite pattern! great job
|
I love hexagons!the quilt looks very nice.
|
Thank you everyone!! I really like it too.. hehe! ;)
|
What a great way to spend a day.
|
I too spent Saturday with the tv and the truck race cutting Christmas fabric. I will finish today while watch the nascar race.
|
What a great inheritance! And a lovely job you are doing with the quilting, too!
|

Lovely quilt and the best way to spend a weekend.
|
Awesome quilt!
|
How beautiful, great work! Love to know that your immersion into quilting is a great one!
|
Beautiful!!!!!!
|
It is beautiful! My nother left me a quilt just like that and it is not finished, I have to get that done, I have been dragging my feet.... She hand quilted the whole entire quilt.... !

You (all of you who hand quilt) have so much patience and skill, and I applaud you for it. I have a quilt started by an now deceased member of our guild. She was hand quilting it, and I know that I should finish it, and I want to do that to honor her, but so far I have not worked up the courage to start it.
|
I love your quilt. My DM did everything on her quilts by hand and I loved how they turned out. My RA keeps me from hand quilting but I love seeing those that others have done.
