A friend came over to make a Twister runner today. I let her use my sewing machine, so I did not sew as much as I might have otherwise. I didn't want to run my HandiQuilter while she was there because it's so noisy.
So after I cleaned up the whole house just for her arrival, I sewed floral strings until she was ready to use my sewing machine. While she sewed I ripped paper off the blocks that were already finished and trimmed. Now I just need to sew about 1/3 of 12 more blocks to have them all finished. This is indeed a beautiful quilt. I am sewing all 12, adding one strip to each one, in a row.
At first I thought I should have made the black strips wider, and out of something with more interest than the solid black I used. Now I'm lovin' it!
My husband and 3 of my children will be home tomorrow. They have a very long drive ahead of them. Left Wisconsin (northern WI) at 5 this evening. Meant to get off earlier, but something must have held them up.
Good night!
