Missing Quilt

Wow! I just noticed I had quilted one that I hadn't posted yet. I am falling behind. I also have a webpage that I post to as I finish each quilt. Also have some listed that I have to quilt. All these are listed at the bottom of the page. I've been doing to much lately to keep up. Worked last week at extension office cause two of the girls were off sick all week. I didn't quilt any. I did hem 2 pairs of paints on Friday, one for husband and one for daughter. My machines got a vacation. Yesterday, I went to quilt guild meeting at 10:00am and Homemakers Thanksgiving Dinner at 6:30pm. Today I will be quilting. Here is a Christmas Quilt I quilted 11/9 for Barbara Cassidy.

Another Teacher's Pet

Finished the binding today on Phyllis's Teacher's Pet.

Where Have I Been? QUILTING

Tuesday I had a Dr. appointment in Huntington and Martha went with me. She took the quilt in Dr. office and sewed binding till I was ready to go. After that we went to WV Quilts and this is the material I bought.

This is the mystery quilt Myrt made in Quilt Guild. I quilted it and it is ready for her to put binding on it.

And on Monday I stopped by to get a top to quilt for Phyllis. I quilted it yesterday evening after quilting Myrt's Wall hanging. I already had Myrt's on the frame from the night before and had a couple of lines sewn on it.

Today I put Barbara's Christmas Quilt in the frame and quilted it. I have the binding ready to sew on it. I am going to have lots of binding to sew by hand. I figure I will have something to keep me busy in between quilting, while I am taking a break. I hope I can get a better picture of some of these. Some are not very good.

Fastest Ever

I quilted this quilt the fastest I ever did one. Today, Martha brought this quilt to Guild Meeting. I brought it home in afternoon and quilted it this evening and sewed the binding on it. I took the photo before putting the binding on it. She is going to work on the binding as she goes with me to Huntington tomorrow. She needs it for a wedding gift on Saturday.

Lap Throw

This is a lap throw that I quilted for Lillian. It was only 44 X 80". Her son's grilfriend had this throw and I think they said it was either her grandmother's or great-grandmother's. Her boyfriend wanted it quilted for her for Christmas and he sneaked it out of the house without her knowing about it to have it quilted. She didn't want any borders or anything added to it. I sure hope she is pleased with it. I don't know if I will hear whether she is pleased or not. It has all kinds of different material in it. It has blue jean, t-shirt knit, sweater knit, cordory and others. I sure took a chance quilting this one. I first started and sewed about 6 inches and had thread breakage. I immediately thought this would be trouble. I didn't like the color of thread so I picked it out and started again. Throughout the quilt I didn't have 3 or 4 breakages which wasn't bad at all. Now I can say I have quilted most different fabrics on this machine.

Pat's Sampler

I got the binding done on Pat's Sampler. Gretta is keeping me busy quilting. I thought I was caught up with having the last one on the frame and finishing the binding on lap throw. Well, this afternoon one she brought me 4 large ones from the ladies at her quilt guild. They all want them quilted and binding on each. I always hand bind them unless they use sheets for the backing.
