Just popping in real quilt to report that I finished quilting the second panel of my liturgical calendar project!
This panel took about nine quilting-hours over seven days, and having the more frequent thread color changes made it fun. I've since taken a few days break from the project, but hope to get the final panel basted today. There is the largest swath of color yet in this one - green. Once I get that done, I think the quilting will be smooth sailing. Fingers crossed I can maayyybbbee get the panel quilted by Thanksgiving? Time will tell....
Love this - and the matchstick quilting, just makes it extra - Wow!! You did a beautiful job, Debbie!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!! I really appreciate that.
DeleteI hope you had a fun sense of accomplishment at every thread color change. Good luck and enjoy quilting the last panel; you've got this!!
ReplyDeleteYou have really paced this out well - I definitely think you can accomplish the finish by Thanksgiving. The matchstick quilting looks great!
