Whoo Hoo! It’s not bound, but it’s quilted.
At the retreat Friday and Saturday I finished the quilting on my Green, Brown and Gold Ladder to the Stars — AKA Deadline II. I’ve been calling it Deadline II because back in October I made it to both test my Ladder to the Stars pattern and to test the quilting I wanted to do on the original Red, White & Blue Ladder to the Stars which was published today in The Quilt Pattern Magazine — an on-line quilting magazine. It’s my first published quilt pattern!
I had about an hour after finishing up LTTS-2 to work on Jared Takes a Wife and I’m ready to assemble blocks.
Since the quilt is quilted, I get to count the backing fabric. It’s off set by the bit of fabric I received at the retreat to make a Flip Flop block — I got the flip flops cut out, but that’s as far as I got since I was focused. I wish I had thought to take a picture of the blocks the other ladies made. They were awesome.
Anyway here’s the weekly stats:
Fabric added this week: 0.5 yards
Fabric added to date: 77.244 yards
Fabric used this week: 3.348 yards
Fabric used to date: 52.73 yards
Net used to date: -24.514 yards
