I have 3 quilts ready for quilting and the plan
was to pin and quilt them last weekend. As I write this post they all got
pinned ready for quilting. I started with the smallest quilt, the fairy quilt
which is for our latest arrival into the family (A new little cousin). I hope they like it. I got it
quilted and bound.
My Celtic Solstice was next, the largest out of
the three. As I was pinning this quilt I could see quilting lines to follow so
I started quilting it next. The diamond with the pin wheel centre is my quilt line. It gives a nice curvy circle effect. It is a big job and I ran out of day. I got middle quilted but I still have the borders to quilt. So that is my starting point
when I get back to the machine. At least I have had a few days to think about
how I am going to quilt it so I am already for some free motion quilting for
the border.
Last to be quilted will be my UFO star quilt; I
am not sure how I want to quilt this one. I wish I had some fabric to put a
border around it but I still haven't found the rest of the fabric. You know I
will find the fabric once I finish this quilt completely. So the fabric I have left has to be for the
binding. I want to see this quilt finished so I'm not going to try and find
something for the border.
Until next time
Keep Stitching
