Friday

The little quilt I showed on Monday is quilted!

I'm always super happy when a project is all DONE!

(That means I can give it AWAY!

The BEST part about quilting!)

This quilt is FULL of  happy scraps.

Some of these scraps have been waiting a LONG time

to be included....

Just a FEW of the little pieces that

NEEDED to be in a quilt!

Such sweet vintage fabric.

Since Ms. Juki was unavailable this week....

little Miss Featherweight did the quilting.

She buzzed right along like it was NO PROBLEM!

"A friend in need is a friend indeed".

Miss Featherweight proved her worth this week.

;)

A new friend

A new friend arrived this week.

I'm spending some time getting to know her as sew up little stars. ;)

It will take lots of little stars to make a quilt. 

Lots of time to get "Friendly" with my new to me machine.

I'm still trying to process the fact that my third child is now married!

Sewing will help my mind wrap around the fact that I'm not 20 something years old anymore and my kids are! :)

getting along

My 2" scraps seem to be getting along with me this week!!!

Is it because they know Christmas is right around the corner???

Their little seams are matching up so nicely!!

I think the reason MIGHT be this little machine!!

She sews along so sweetly.

I'm also being a little more careful to

use a SCANT 1/4" seam.

Maybe that helps...but....

I'm going to give my little featherweight

ALL the CREDIT!!!

I was ACTUALLY getting LOW on 2" scraps!!

Can you believe it??

I cut some more today....

and hope that....

This quilt grows to be

TWIN size sometime real soon!!!!
