Here are the next two of my 30 quilts in 60 days.
First, "Cherish Nature," the largest quilt I have quilted. I quilted an all-over loops and swirls design using a teal "Omni" thread from Superior Threads:
It took both guys to hold this one over the edge of the deck so I could photograph it!
The next "finish" is hanging in my kitchen. "Dimestore" is a Schnibbles pattern by Carrie Nelson. My Little Sailor held up his Kindle so you can judge the size of this quilt. I quilted it on my Juki (Zippy) using white Omni thread at 1/4" away from each seam.
Not a quilt, but displayed in my kitchen next to "Dimestore," I just think these plates are funny. Misplaced apostrophes make me crazy!
I bought them here. It's a little hard to read the bottom plate -- the rule is, "it's" means "it is." "Its" means "belongs to." Don't you cringe every time you read a blog post with grammar mistakes?

ReplyDeleteI know I leave out apostrophes when they should be there or vice versa. Fortunately spell check gets most of them - but please don't (dont????) cringe if you read some of mine where I got it wrong - just always in a hurry and a bad typist to boot!
ReplyDeleteDo you know the "blog" of unnecessary "quotation marks?" You might enjoy it ... Or it could just make you crazy :-)
