I have had this UFO sitting on the chair in my sewing room for more than a year.
It was well past due to be quilted.. It is not perfect by any means , but I can live with
the mistakes and hope to not make them on the next project . I chose a simple all over design.
It was actually fun and went rather quickly. I just have to remember to keep my thumbs
out of the way next time too. Thankfully the safety on my machine shut it off before I
did too much damage . Oh well Live and Learn. My 2 little granddaughters fixed me up with a
bandaid and told me to be carefull next time. So all is good .

Looks good, Glor. You have done a great job- pretty quilt, too. I am yet to attempt any kind of machine quilting. Saw a lady at the craft fair stippling- she made it look so easy but she has probably been doing it for years!
ReplyDeleteWell done with your FMQ and thank goodness for caring grandchildren :). Like Sandy I'm still thinking about FMQ. Lol, I should try it asap as my arthritis won't disappear the older I become!!

Looks good Gloria. I once read that stippling is the hardest FMQ to do. Lucky you had a nurse to tend to your wounds. May have to list FMQ as a dangerous sport.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt and stippling looks excellent Gloria!
