Third one done! :)
Last night I finished sewing the label onto the third and last of my
Jennie Rayment quilts from camp. I still think that Tucked-Up Circles is my favorite of the three, but this one was fun to do, too. It's called Eight Petals and a Pot (for obvious reasons G), and the pot and the petals are all "twiddled and fiddled" a bit. The leaves are dimensional, made of two layers of fabric with batting between and then satin stitched together before being satin stitched onto the quilt by means of the "veins". The machine quilting is mostly flowers and leaves. I've posted pics at http://sandymike.net/fabmanip.html#EightPetals. My quilting frenzy is now at a temporary end, since DH is on the way home right now with MIL in tow. They should arrive in a few hours, giving me just enough time to make dinner and have it cooling (tomato pie is much better when it's not piping hot G) after I dress for the day. It's amazing how much I can get done when I have these little respites from "normal" life. -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas sfoster 1 (at) earthlink (dot) net (remove/change the obvious) http://www.sandymike.net |

I really like this Sandy! And your quilting is so cute! Congratulations on
getting THREE class projects done so soon after camp. You have been possessed. Tomato pie? Sounds interesting! I'll have to google a recipe. -- Kathyl (KJ) remove "nospam" before mchsi http://community.webshots.com/user/kathylquiltz "Sandy" wrote in message ...

It's great!
Anytime you want to come and deal with my unfinished projects....:-) Maybe you could just come and crack the whip. marcella In article , Sandy wrote: Last night I finished sewing the label onto the third and last of my Jennie Rayment quilts from camp.

Wonderful Sandy. They all turned out very well.
Have fun with your MIL's visit.

G My advantage this time was that DH has been out of town for an entire week, leaving me to my own schedule and allowing me to quilt my brains out. LOL! He's coming back today, though, and bringing MIL with him. My trusty Bernina has just gone to the spa for a well-deserved going over as a reward for excellent service. -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas sfoster 1 (at) earthlink (dot) net (remove/change the obvious) http://www.sandymike.net |

Thanks so much, Pat! I do love all of them -- most of all because of how much fun they were to make. I've scattered them around the house to show to DH and MIL when they arrive later.

Not so much possessed as liberated. VBG DH has been gone for a week, and that really adds to my free time. He's coming back today and bringing his mother, so I also had a sort of deadline, since I know I won't get much done while she's visiting. Tomato pie? Sounds interesting! I'll have to google a recipe. It's quite tasty, and it's one of those things that actually tastes better if it's not piping hot. Very nice for the summer. -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas sfoster 1 (at) earthlink (dot) net (remove/change the obvious) http://www.sandymike.net |
