Before, During and After

The before portion of this post, is a newly loaded quilt on the frame.
This one jumped to the front of the line because I wanted it there!
I couldn't wait to see it finished and 
now it is all ready for me to do some quilting today, first thing.
(As soon as I can get moving!)
The during part of the refers to the seaming that will now
take place on the hot-off-the-needle-bed
v-neck raglan sweater.
NOT
top down, but bottom up and it looks like I nailed the fit this time!
This one is made of the Cotton/Bamboo yarn that has a wonderful
hand but was a splitting misery to work with-that being said,
now that it's done being made, I will enjoy wearing it!
Onward to the seaming....
 And the After?  A finished quilt!  
Wonderfully textured and ready to warm up a lap!

It was quilted with an all-over panto-hearts and shwoops. 
 Don't you just love this corner of the quilt!
I am not a real purple fan but I have been enjoying the plums
and even bought myself a t-shirt this color!
It's good to leave the rut sometimes!

  4. Your sewing/craft room has seen a flurry of activity! Great projects. I love how quilts "crinkle" after laundering.
