Quilting and Stuff by Knitnoid

A Very Good Quilty Day

Friday was a very good quilty day.  First I was paid for quilting I did that I expected no payment for. Then I recounted the stars.  That bottom right star is #113, the next to the last star journaled.  This means I have all the stars that I’ve made. Star # 114 is in my Star-A-Day box along with Star #115 which I had not journaled.  I suspect it’s because I lost 2 of the swatches.  I pressed that star, did my journaling and glued in the one piece of fabric I did find.  Only 250 stars to go.

Then I quilted this cute Crayon quilt.  Back in August, Brandon Quilters had a program on Crayon quilts and everyone made a block during the meeting.  One of our members took the blocks home and she brought 2 quilt tops to the meeting on Monday.  I found some pink floral fabric in my stash for the backing.  When I get the other one quilted I’ll give them back for her to bind. Ultimately they will be Community Quilt.  I have the backing made for the 2nd quilt, I just need to figure out how I’m going to quilt it.

While this was quilting, I continued working on Twirling Leaves. Just one more block to finish!
