I finished the handquilting on the A Little Porch Time block that I turned into a lap quilt using the big stitch and black crochet cotton thread.
A peek at the start of a primitive quilt I'm stitching, using my favorite method of applique, needle turn, hopefully a submission. Surprise, surprise, the last quilt I submitted was accepted.
Sidney, gazing out the window, not with a curious gaze either. She does this often lately. Sometimes I think that she is still waiting for Jim to come home.
Wish I was in charge of accepting quilts for magazines . . . you would also have a space!
ReplyDeleteI really should do what you did with the quilt block. That is the only one I have made from the pattern. Probably because it is the first one in the book.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what your quilt looks like.
ReplyDeleteAnimals do seem to know when someone is missing, beautiful shot of him on the couch.
