Ack - I did NOT do a good job of planning for this week. I have a LOT of commitments and still trying to get some quilting done. BUT - I am making progress - just working some bizarre hours!
We had embroidery club yesterday and I got something done!!!!!!!!
 |
| YES - this border is finally finished!!!!!!! I do have a couple of extra butterflies that I am going to put on the quilt, but that won't take long and then I can put the final border on!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 |
Then I did a small community project quilt that needed to be done.
 |
| Community project quilt - very cute!!!!!!! I trimmed it and put the binding on and even delivered it!!!!! |

Then I got busy to work on those five quilts that need to be done. The ones that I can't show you yet!!!!!!
The backing for three of them was ONE big long piece of fireside fleece. I serged some waste cloth on both sides of the fleece. Then I loaded that HUGE long piece. I had a massive roll on the machine - almost wasn't going to fit!!!!! Then I loaded the first quilt. There is NOT a lot of room to spare.

| This is the right hand side of the loaded quilt |
 |
| This is the left side!!!!!! |
When I was done one quilt, I cut the excess batting away (oh yes - I had to piece the batting for all three!!!)
Anyway - then I just snugged the next quilt top up leaving an inch between the end of the previous one and I have TEN MINUTES left before all three are done.

So on that note - I have to get back to the machine. I hope to get those three quilts trimmed and bound today at Thursday sewing and I have to leave shortly. There is NO PRESSURE in my world!!!!! Oh my!!!!
Have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ciao!!!!!!!!!!!!!
