Thinking about retiring? I recommend it! This is how I spent my Thursday. I thought I wanted to get into the studio to quilt but somewhere on the way I was sidetracked by sunshine and 77F temps, and quality reading. Oh, and a couple of peppermint patties.
So, today, Friday, I got another row quilted on the Cats quilt prior to getting in another couple hours of quality reading time.
I did take out a little time to begin work on Vicki’s color palette challenge for February. Aren’t the colors luscious? So I pulled these fabrics but I am not sure what I will be doing with them.
Except that they will probably be the outside for an iPad cover. This is a double thickness of a semi-stiff stabelizer. I have drawn the outline of the iPad, with an inch included for the fold, and than an additional inch to give me a little room for other stuff. Now all I have to do is come up with a design for the quilt: I can’t cut into the fabric until I know what I need.
I hope to get back to the quilting on Cats either Saturday or Sunday. I have three more rows and then a little fixing (filling the empty spaces I missed on the way down) and then it will be time to cut the fabric for the binding. I got a great stripe that I think will finish this cute quilt off great.
Have a great weekend and come back and visit again.
