Join me on my journey through the world of quilting. I'll be showing pics of WIPs (Works In Progress), finished quilts, UFOs (Un-Finished Objects), and maybe even a "How I did that" every now and then. I hope you enjoy your visit.
Welcome!
Come in! Have a cup of coffee, maybe a piece of chocolate... Don't mind the thread snips... They keep the Dust Bunnies occupied.

Giftmas Quilt redux redux redux
This is the quilt I made for my baby sister for Giftmas. After the top was sewn, the flip flops were applique'd on, then I hand stitched the straps onto the flip flops. For placement, I spread the finished top on my bed and tossed the flip flop fabric in the air over the bed. I then pinned the fabric to wherever it landed. For each pair, I removed the fabric and left the pin in place and made the flip flops. Once they were ready, I applique'd them in place and moved on to the next pair.
This was a fun pattern, and because of it, I am less scared to try a true bargello quilt.
We are off today to our first ever ATHA meeting. I will post a report on it over on A Hook and A Promise when we get home. Of course I am running about half an hour late this morning, so I guess I better get going.
That's all for now
See Y'All Later!
