So, I have been working on quilting my Trail Mix quilt, whipping along and this happens:
See where the seam split? Argh! Oh well, I am going to have to fix it when the quilt is done, and if I can find the spot.
There is so much quilting in this particular quilt that this is what my thread cone looks like:
I have been using it in the top and the bobbin. To give ya'll a clue, I go through 2-3 bobbins per row of quilting. So, on the way home from work today, I stopped off at Hancock's and got this:
I just had a feeling I would run out if I didn't get more, so there you go. I also bought some fabric, but not a whole lot. They are having a tremendous clearance sale, and I really had to hold myself back. I should not be allowed to shop by myself anymore, I get myself in trouble! LOL.
On the wedding quilt news, I have the stencil and the borders all drawn out, and I hope to get started on the trapunto work this week. I do have a test on Monday though, so that has to come first. But, all in all, I have things under control, for a while anyway.
No new pictures of the fantabulous Mr. Hiro today, but we did finally get some of this today:
It finally rained today! Yippee! Maybe now, things will turn green instead of brown. Although, the kudzu vines will now overtake everything- quick, grab a machete and start chopping. Seriously, they need very little encouragement.
Happy quilting,
Marianne
