Quilting and Stuff by Knitnoid

A Long Day of Quilting

I took the day off from work to do a bit of quilting. As I mentioned yesterday, today was going to be full day of quilting. At 10 AM I was standing on the doorstep of the quilt shop.

First up was Aiming for Accuracy, a quilt along from August 2013.

After it came off the frame, I stopped to eat the sandwich I brought for lunch, then I was back at it, loading Orange Crush, a mystery quilt from 2008. I used the same pantograph for both quilts.

I got home shortly after 5 PM and quickly ate dinner that I picked up on the way home, then it was back into the sewing room to trim the quilts. Now I have three ready to bind.tues-trimmedBinding strips were cut – I’m using Susie’s Magic Binding on two of the quilts.

Poor lighting, but binding for 2 of the quilts is made. I still need to finish the Orange Crush binding, but I’ve run out of steam.tues-2bindingsGame 1 of the World Series is tonight and I said Tuesday is the day I work on Sew Scrappy, so who knows what I’ll get done.

    Great job!! I love the pink one, “Aiming for Accuracy”.

    Go Royals!

  2. You had a very productive day! No picture of the D9P? You will have some slow stitching if you finish tacking the binding down by hand. Congrats on 3 finishes!
