    Default kite flight....ready for basting
    who's coming over?

    man i hate basting.

    it's much bluer in person. i like it, but would do it a bit differently if i were to make it again. the whites, off whites and baby blues don't really work for me. but! done

    so...here we go!

    (very traditional Amish quilting to come. excited!)

    I like it! I like the contrast, but I am a blue person anyway. Keep going!

    Can't come over unfortunately....but LOVE your quilt .... and would suggest that if you hate basting you give the Elmer's school glue method a try. Promise you....it works like a charm !!!!

    I really like it too. It looks gorgeous, and I can't wait to see how you quilt it.

    I got out my water soluable thread and machine basted the quilt I'm hand quilting. It's much quicker and easier. Just an idea...
