Frank was watching the LSU play. He says they have fairy dust that whoever is their coach throws on them in the halftime talk. You can tell I am not a sports fan, I can't think of the coach's name.
I was putting the finishing touches on the Cheddar quilt.
I finished sewing the rows together this afternoon. After a visit to Carrabas and CC's for coffee, I
added a red inner border. Then the final border.
And I am really impressed with myself for not having to rip out any blocks to make sure they were all going the same way! I think that is a first as well.
And I must have finally figured out how to do it, I think this so the first time ever in all my quilting years.....that a quilt came out mostly square! I had to get Frank to hold it for the picture because it is too large for the design wall. I can get it up there but it hides behind part of the table. The cutting table that is pile high with junk and fabric!!!!
Oh well, I just have to keep quilting!!!
I think tomorrow I will work on Carrie's quilt that is on the frame. I put one of the baby quilts on the frame because she wanted to play around with a lot of patterns and develop some skills. But since before my surgery 9 weeks ago she has not touched it.
It wants to be quilted so I will oblige!!!!!
Congratulations! I never worry about even sides. I don't enter my quilts in shows and don't care to be judged as I don't care what other people think. :o) That red inner is a nice break in the cheddars. It's awesome.
