I thought I had a good plan yesterday, but all good plans beg for a glitch. I started a big quilting project and it took longer than expected to get it programmed in and quilting. Each row took way longer than I thought it would to quilt, so I fell behind on my schedule quickly. Then, I had to pick out a big portion of a row because I forgot to put the clamps on and got a tuck...rats! I made a speed trip to the quilt shop to meet a customer with a repair, and also got a baby quilt from her that she needed done ASAP. I figured I could get it quilted and the binding done by the next day, and told her so. Oh dear. Now, I am working against the clock to get it quilted and bound before the quilt shop closes today, so she can pick it up. I measured the project last night before quitting at 10:30, and the backing is too small. I gave up and went to bed, figuring I would deal with it today.
So, I had better get to it! Stay tuned for the update...

This s the kind of thing longarm quilters hate to see. The backing has a big chunk out of it! I had to cut off almost 4 inches of the length to get it straight! |

I finished these two throw pillows for the boutique |

They have envelope backs |

My placemats are ready for my binding demonstration at the show. Birds on the front, feathers on the back...or is it the other way around? |

24 bandana bibs |

Molly just had to photobomb the second picture. |

The giant quilt in progress. I thought I would never finish it! |

But I did! |

The backing was big enough to compensate for having 4 inches cut off. Whew! |
I have a full day ahead, so I better get to it! Bye for now.
