Piano key progress; it is slow going but it is going.
I made the four corner blocks
so now I only have to put all of the units together
and I will have the second Sea Travelers quilt top done!!!
And then there is thing. I finally felt like standing and doing some quilting but when I was 3/4 of the way across, the top thread broke. When I stopped to fix it, I could see some caterpillars of thread on the bottom of the quilt! It is such a pain to pull and pick out stitches! I worked at it for a while and then I walked away!
Instead, I went and enjoyed a good thunderstorm while spinning the second bobbin full.
Today, I will be plying the two bobbins into yarn!!!
I love pianos keys - but they do take a little time to get right
ReplyDeleteI've got some piano keys to work on myself today. I also just picked out a whole lot of machine quilting stitches and it was a real pain. I am trying to work on my sister's quilt and my thread color and the backing material did NOT play nice together. I've ordered more and I've got my fingers crossed it will work out when it gets here.
ReplyDeleteSo, so sorry about the stitch mishaps. Glad you found a pleasant escape.
ReplyDeleteWalking away from the problem stitches and tackling them when rested is a good plan.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a lot of fun stitching!! well all except for the caterpillars!! they should not be allowed near quilts haha - glad you took a break
