I took a day to catch up on some handwork and repairs. One was a small repair on the back and hand sew the binding. I didn't get a picture before it went out the door.😐I finished the charcoal binding on the orange UFO quilt, and cut the next round of squares for the trip around the world repair.
I had an unusual request for some "Tuck-ins" on a favorite comforter from one of my disabled customers. She tends to pull the cover off during her sleep, and wanted a deeper piece to tuck under the mattress. Here it is, all finished.
|
Now, she has 20 inches on the side and bottom of the comforter for her husband to tuck in. That should do it! |
Regular quilting projects went on as usual, with this quilt from a student in my Garden Delight class.
|
My customer took the class last year, and finished it! I love her selection of soft florals for the quilt. |
|
Panto: Frolic |
|
Soft and pretty green calico backing. |
I went off to get my hair cut and run some errands today while Mr Wazoo held down the fort. He must have quilted like a mad man, because he finished these quilts from the same customer.
|
The customer who sews these is well into her 80s and still going strong. I love getting quilts from her. |
|
Panto: Oriental fans |
|
Elegant gold printed fabric on the back. |
|
This quilt used soothing floral fabrics and complimentary colored blocks. |
|
Panto: Daisy swirl |

A peek at the back |
I visited my quilting friend and hairdresser extraordinaire today, chatting him up, looking at his latest projects and talking shop. It was a well needed break from my daily regimen. Some grocery shopping, a trip to the bank and picking up a quilt to be finished rounded out the day. I haven't done any hand work tonight. Just a glass of wine and some Doc Martin on PBS. Life is good.

Feeling snazzy with my new hair style. |
