This top is off the quilting frame--it is larger than my usual lap quilts of 40 x 52" since it measures 50 x 65"--a good 'curl up on the couch' quilt!
The quilting looks very different than my usual work, also,
but it will be interesting to see how it washes and dries!
I will be applying the binding today.
(I'm hoping for a better day in the studio because everything broke, dropped, spilled , etc, yesterday!)
I want to make a bell ornament on the lathe today--
I have been drawing a few examples to help me
when I actually start to work today!
The sock went well and I enjoyed a lot of knitting time while in the recliner-sometimes it's the best spot in the house!
That quilt has such a charming vintage look; that calming neutral color of the border is perfect with the varied fabrics of the squares. Lovely! Bells — that will be a fun experiment!
ReplyDeleteAll your quilts are amazing but that one really is special. It had a very cozy quality to it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty quilt! I used to collect bells but gave away all but a few very special ones when we moved. I'll look forward to seeing the one you make.
ReplyDeleteThe sock looks great too! Very pretty stitches.
Blessings,
Betsy
