I am still working on the double wedding ring quilt for Buck and Jen’s wedding. Â I made progress this week….and progress is good. Â Over the next two weeks I am hoping that I’ll have a row or two together. Â Right now, all the first arcs are attached to the melon-all the second arcs are sewn.
I have to bind my UFO #6. Â I got bogged down looking for binding fabric. Â I have 16″ of the fabric below that I want to use but I need about a 1/2 yard more. Â I still haven’t found any despite my efforts and Ila’s efforts. Â I think I am ready to just find a different brown. Â That means another trip to town…hopefully that will happen this week.
There’s my poor quilt waiting for binding…
Last week the patching pile was conquered. Â Three pair of pants, a pair of shorts and a scarf are all back in working condition.
I got notes from two different blog readers that they are sending quilts for charity projects. Â That means lots of quilting to do….which I am excited about BUT…all of that is on hold until I get two projects with deadlines done. Â Thankful Kelli is working hard on both of those.
Lastly, I am scheduled to talk to the quilting guild and teach a class in Manchester, Iowa on Thursday. Â It’s a busy week!!
