Quilting Weekend

8/25/2012

0 Comments

 
So I finally got Danielle's double sided tshirt quilt off the quilting machine - it turned out to be VERY difficult.  My machine was having a hard time with the knitted fabrics on both sides.

I have cut and pressed the binding but I still need to get it stitched on.  I also made some good progress last week on Emmy's quilt.  I got all the sizing finalized, the squares cut and the interfacing cut.  Next up will be the squares that need applique and ironing on the interfacing.

I also made a ton of progress on Victoria's Quilt.  She is hoping to give the quilt to her son for his birthday party this saturday so I am trying really hard to get it done in time.  I was hoping to have the entire quilt done by tonight and mail it tomorrow but I ran out of time.  If my machine cooperates tomorrow I might be able to get it in the mail first thing on Tuesday.  Some of the squares took MUCH longer than I expected due to the three dimensional objects that needed to be sewn on.  So far this quilt is looking super adorable!

I didn't get Victoria's quilt finished like I hoped but I sure did my best to do as much quilting as possible.  

Also, my big sister in my sorority came in town from San Francisco to visit.  They've been mostly entertaining themselves since i'm busy sewing and the weather has been pretty crummy with Hurricane Isaac right off the coast.

Lastly, Happy 45th bday to my stepdad Joe!  Hope it was awesome!
