    Default Quilt top finsish

    Finished! Sometimes life won't let a quick quilt pattern go together quickly. I guess all that matters is it does get done. I designed it so I could do some quick sewing at night....it's a long story so we'll just leave it at that. For me a quick quilt means a quilt top in a week or less. UGGG...it took 2 weeks, maybe a bit more. It really could have been made in a day if a gal was dedicated to sewing. I used a charm pack and some yardage. Fusible applique with invisible thread. Hopefully the quilting process goes a little quicker. My quilt picture turned out awful so I added a picture of the blocks before they made it into the quilt. For the last 6 months all my quilts have been quilted on my DM, but I'm ready to start custom work on my Bailey home quilter again. Do you gals with frame quilters ever get tired of them? Boy I do!

    Very cute! It is hard to carve out sewing time when there are so many things pulling you in different directions.

    Really cute quilt. I could not have made it in two weeks! That does not look "simple" to me.

    Such a sweet quilt, I'm looking forward to seeing it after the quilting is done.

    I love the repro fabrics!
    I will confess, I've had 2 brand new frames, my poor hubby set up the 1st one. I decided it was just too big, I never even loaded a quilt on it. I sold it.
    I decided maybe a frame that I could leave set up in crib size, expand it only if I decided to quilt a larger quilt was a super idea!
    So I bought the Grace Gracie Queen. Again hubby set it up, I started to load a quilt on it, got frustrated, and I'm selling it now, too.
    I told my hubby he didn't have to ban me from future machine quilting frame purchases, I'd ban myself!

    That came out REALLY cute. I have the same problem with most of my quilts. Sometimes it is just a long struggle to get them done.
