I finally started handquilting the top of this colorful quilt ! Like butterflies and flowers! Trying to decide what quilts I want to put together next. I hope that I will be able to have the maple leaf quilt done by this fall.
Because, I will be selling some of the quilts I make, I do have to be careful what I make. Either make my own patterns or get the quilts that are now in public domain. I like reproducing old quilt patterns.
Starting this Thursday, I am free to do what I want. Or you can say I am sort of on a vacation of sorts; no babysitting. From July 9-19th. Guess what I will be doing? Sewing, quilting and cleaning out some rooms upstairs ! I have three other big rooms upstairs, besides my bedroom. So I might as well convert them into sewing rooms/ guest rooms...I live in a 11 room house in the country, located close to a main road. My dream is to some day open a quilt shop, and even have quilt classes where a few out-of-towners can stay the night.
I have an old Pfaff, 103 yr old treadle, 401A Singer and I will be getting another old Singer; a Slantomatic.
