It really feels good to get these quilted. On one, I remembered to stitch the binding to the back so that I could just bring it to the front and machine stitch it down. On another, I forgot and sewed it to the front, so I'm in the middle of hand-stitching it to the back. I hate that!!!! It takes me longer to hand-sew binding than to quilt -- grrr. The pink and green quilt is pretty large, so I hope I remember to put the binding on the back.
I hope your ideas remain in memory longer than mine!

WOW - nose to the grind stone! Way to go in getting so many finished. I love your insight into the money for fabric, to sell, etc...... The wheel keeps turning.
ReplyDeleteIf I don't write my ideas down...they're gone!!
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy....beautiful work. You picked up a new follower.
Holy Mackerel! You quilted 3 quilts this week?! That is incredible - I have two sitting and can't even get myself to do the basting part!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree with Kiera - I'm getting to where I absolutely have to write everything down. I didn't used to be like that so much...
You could machine stitch it to the back it is just a little trickier, I have done it though and it turned out fine:) Keep that energy rolling!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome week for you~! I like your cycle...it's why I take in quilting for others....to buy more fabric. Hey, mu short term memory is down to one kilobyte--I have to write a list to remember what I am getting when I visit my storage in the basement. Ahhgahh... I too, stitch to the back and flip to the front to top stitch the bindings.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a plan. Congratulations! Three tops quilted in one week is an amazing amount of work.
