We have a wedding on Saturday so I am scrambling to get a quilt done…typical of me right??
I had hoped to have a different quilt made but that didn’t happen so “Red” Ridged Beauty it is…
I have my head phones on. I am listening to The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business. So far, I love it! I typically don’t read non-fiction unless there is a story to it but this is really good. After listening to various sections I can look back on my life and see why this diet or that diet failed. I can see how I got to be a workaholic. I can see lots of things and it’s really interesting. I could tell you all the other revolutions I have come to from reading the book but I have about 7 more bobbins worth of thread to unload on this quilt before I am finished and the clock it ticking…..
Wow – I liked the blue version and I REALLY like the red one! I ask this question from the point of not knowing anything about longarm quilting: is your machine really quiet enough so that you can listen to a book, even with headphones? Thanks for the nice things you wrote after we met in Oelwein. You and Kelli are a hoot! Can’t wait to have you at our Okoboji retreat.
thanks for photo of a quilt on frame, I love that it hangs gracefully rather than roled my directions made making a quilt a fight. I have the same frame.
Good luck!!! BTW…I love that done in red! Very pretty! You must have one heck of a fabric stash!

Beautiful quilt, Jo! I love it in Red, too! That’s one lucky couple to receive this lovely as a gift.
Jo, this is My Red Heaven…(aka My Blue Heaven). Not Blue Ridge Beauty…oops! It looks great in reds. I made one in greens. Sandi
That quilt is just gorgeous Jo. I just love the fabrics you have used. I’m sure the happy couple are going to treasure it.

It is lovely……… but then red is the best color :o)
Wow, I’m jealous of your mad skills!
It’s fabulous Jo. Nice to see your frame. Makes me wonder how many of us float our tops. I do most often these days.

So pretty! What a beautiful gift for the new couple to start their lives together with!
You float a big quilt? I didn’t think it was possible. Even when I float the batting on a baby quilt It hangs up. Any Hints?
WOW!! STUNNING Quilt!! The happy couple are going to be thrilled!

That is just a fabulous quilt…. I love how you used the fabrics together. Thank you for the pattern… that will be fun.
What a beautiful gift! They must be a very special couple and I am certain that they will treasure that gorgeous quilt for years!
