It was a really nice day yesterday and I was able to sew and quilt for 6 hours before my back hurt too bad. I first quilted a QOV that I have had for a while. I know they need these done, so I figured it was best to do it now.
The pattern the quilt maker used was really pretty, and I like the scrappiness of it. Two block quilts are always interesting to look at.
I used a panto with stars that I can't remember the name of.
The backing is a bit too stiff for my liking, but I assume it will soften with washing or daily use.
After finishing the QOV, I quilted and bound the dogs in space charity quilt.
It turned out so soft and cuddly! The binding is the same houndstooth check used in the top.
I used the same panto as the one on the QOV.
There was enough of the doggie fabric to back the quilt with, so I chose that.
Durinng the quilting process, I cut the pieces for a boxed square quilt. The customer one from yesterday had me thinking about the pattern, so I dug out a Lonni Rossi jelly roll and started in.
I'm going to try to work a bit on this today
Stacks of fun!
This morning, I had my first aqua-therapy at the Wellness Center. The water in the pool there is nice and warm, o it felt good. My therapist had an hour's worth of exercises for me, and I was able to do everything she asked. However, once back on dry land, my back was throbbing. I came home and sat with the heating pad, and now I had better get going and get in the studio. Tomorrow, we go to Gainsville and see the Pain specialist. I should be getting the deep nerve block shot in my back. Wish me luck!
