A Finish to Report and the Week Ahead on the Design Wall Monday
KerBloom! is now finished. I spent the last 2 hours and 40 minutes sewing the binding on. I watched the Amazing Race and the Good Wife. I love the Good Wife. And nearly 3/4 the way through the Mentalist.
My standard Sunday Night Fare.
The great thing about finishing KerBloomm! is that I get to claim the quilt and the backing on both my next week's Stash Report AND my OPAM for April. Which means I am at 14 completions for the year, and I am right on track for One Project A Month for the first quarter of 2014. Yes!
My week's work will be to complete the quilting on the Star quilt, which needs a really dynamite name. I am doing ruler work which is slowing me down. I should have done Meandering Stars and it would be done by now. but I wanted to practice with my channel locks on the wheels. If I would have realiz
ed that that only works on the four small corners and that all the stars require angled lines, I could have rethought the process and made a different choice.
See where I forgot to lock the rollers? It made the quilt skew and the sewing line was skewed as well.
The other thing I wanted to get accomplished this week is to finish up Sunshine on the Water for the Fiber Group. And I need to put the borders on the Machine Quilt and get that ready for the frame. I already have the backing!
That will be a nice finish to report on my Stash Report as well!
