I just wanted to check in real quick and let you know that although I’m not posting on this site … I’m working behind the scenes ….. on the next Quilt Along Series.
I want to make sure I can teach you How to make a Quilt … correctly … just as I do on my papercrafting videos.
So, the first order of business is:
- Find an easy quilt.
- Make one.
- If it turns out good … we’ll make it together.
I will always do a test one first because I can live with ruining my fabric … but not yours!
I’ll go back to the drawing board if it doesn’t turn out right.
I’m in the testing phase of a Fence Rail Quilt.
Testing phase is a good word for the fact that I spent over two hours trying to figure out how to place my fabric. It finally hit me … but the process was slow (sometimes I scare myself).
Yesterday I began the actual sewing of the strips …. and now I’m ready for pressing the fabric. After pressing …. I’ll be cutting.
BUT … I’m leaving for Dallas on Thursday (Stampin’ Up! event) … so once again everything goes on hold.
When I return … I’ll do my best to get it going … but it’s safe to say we’ll skip doing a Quilt Along in November.
Next subject … Kansas City Royals … I could write a whole book on all the games I went to in October. Every time I wanted to do a blog post I couldn’t because I didn’t know where to start. So, long story short …. I had the most amazing time at all the post season games and I am truly blessed to have such an opportunity! At some point I may revisit this subject and share a ton of pictures … but those too need to be organized before I can get started!
Have a wonderful day!!
Congrats on a great season! Personally I am an SF Giants fan, but I rooted for the Royals to win for you once we got knocked out of the running. I’m very excited for the next quilt along. It looks like it will use jelly rolls and I have a few stashed that are dying to be made into a quilt. 🙂 Thank you for working on this for us, Angie!!!
