Quilting Update
March 14, 2015
What a week!
I now have the green border fabric for the Gingerbread Quilt tops so I can sew that on in the next few days and prep them to go to the machine quilter.
phew! Also at the quilt store Friday I picked up these items too:
My friend Sue calls this her "guilty pleasure" and after she said that I am going to as well! This item is the BEST thing for ironing clothing and fabric on the market- it takes out the wrinkles like nobody's business!
I bought this spray adhesive for basting my baby quilts together so I don't have to hand baste with thread. I will let you know how I like it -
I did it- I paid an arm and a leg for this wash away basting thread- just in case I don't like the spray adhesive- lol
And thanks to Rose at the retreat, I now cannot live without these marking pens- Frixion and you draw on your fabric- sew with machine and iron the markings off- look out world!
I also picked up #7 of my snowman quilt block kits (5 more to go)- didnt post photo it was to blurry- I will get the kits all together and take a group shot- you know that they are ALL still in the bags- none are done lol
Friday night was our first Committee meeting for Genealogy Springfield of which I am the chairman. I am not a genealogy expert I am the organizer and I have some great experts on the committee with me and this will be a fabulous Event in Springfield Missouri October 18,2015. www.genealogysgf.org for details - we are still putting the website together so please be patient. Registration is FREE but MUST be done online when we have it ready.
We have a range of cold, warm , rainy mixed with sun weather. I look outside to the garden and run downstairs to the sewing machine. I am just not "ready" for outside work. I honestly feel an urgent need to get these quilts "finished". AND the more I can sew up the sooner I can make some new fabric purchases! lol
have a great weekend everyone and thanks for sharing in my life
hugs
Gwen
