As you know, I had to start back to work this week. But I still managed to cut out a purple and blue quilt for Rebecca's neice (to be shown tomorrow)...and I worked on my Christmas tree skirt project. I am going to make the tree skirt from
Crazy Mom Quilts' blog tutorial. Check out
hers.....I've made my log cabin blocks (all from vintage plaid shirts)....tomorrow I will buy the fabric for the background. I'm leaning towards a beige/light tan. But maybe it will end up being white...we'll see. Anyhow, here is my proof that I worked on Christmas today....
Ideally I'll end up quilting it myself....once I learn how to stipple. I've been practicing in my head--does that count?? LOL....Anyhow, I've got to clean up for tonight, but expect some pics of the fabric squares for the other quilt....Happy Quilting!!
I don't know how much practicing in your head counts but I always draw out quilting designs (many times) before trying them on the machine. I find If I can draw them I can quilt them.
