SHARING THE LOVE OF QUILTING

Wednesday night when we came out of church the moon was perfectly framed through the tall pine trees in the woods across from where we park-it was amazing to see!

Yesterday, my friend came over to load up her first quilt top

 and I gave her a crash course on machine quilting!!! 

 She did beautifully!

This is her quilt...

Here is a glimpse of the panto she is using.

I finished the last three jars for my Jar Collection quilt. 

 Today, I will sew on all of the blocks, sashing and borders.

 

My Timing is Off!

 Well, I know a lot more about the insides of my heavy duty quilting machine!

 The good news was that while it is interesting...we still needed to find the problem.

I hit a pin that was mistakenly in the quilting path and the machine ground to a halt!

This machine is 25 yrs old...it didn't like the interruption.

Not for the first time, I am very grateful for my husband who figures out all things mechanical!

Now that he has figured out the problem, he even knew how to fix it!
