Scrappy Tumbler Quilt!
Finally I have hand quilted all the rows that I can with this hugh
quilt on the frame. So today,off it comes from the frame and I will use hoops to finish the sides as who has a frame 108 inches wide? Anyway, I consider it a feat to have come this far. I have the frame set up in my lower level living room and need to totally clean that area of the house. This has been a good winter for quilting. Who could even want to go out of doors when it is below zero most mornings. I do get to cardiac rehab once a week (suppose to go three) but the other days I get on my own equipment. I have enjoyed reading the posts every day and I think we have all been productive this year. It is difficult to know what will happen to any of us economically speaking, but scrap quilting may come to most of us....never bought anything but the muslin for the back and batting. I did that by mail and shopped on line for the best bargain...JoAnns was half the price of most places and I thanked god for their free shipping. Blessings are in abundance when ever we take the time to seek it out. Rhoda http://home.att.net/~rewicker |

Thanks for posting, Rhoda, your optimism makes me feel better. Happy
Valentine'S Day! You sure have been quick with that Tumbler quilt. Scrappy is my favorite. Roberta in D, Queen of the Scrap Heap On Sat, 14 Feb 2009 03:10:22 -0600, R. E.

Scrappy Tumbler Quilt!
kDear Roberta, thank you for your interest in my scrappy quilt. The
hand quilting as I watch English Drame DVDs is going slower. Mixed interests. But I have finished up the loose ends on one of four sides and I'm satisfied. I made the downstairs living room presentable again with finished quilts on the quilt rack only. I am not having good luck at getting a picture of it "in the works" posted on my web site but there are plenty of previously quilted quilts up. We are -6 degrees here in Minnesota so getting out of doors is not necessarily inviting. I do have my weekly hair appointment down town so I will have a change from cleaning and quilting and hear the town gossip. Again, I appreciate your interest. Scrappy is a great way to clean up the Quilting Room.
