Well I managed to finish the Owl quilt top today. I also had some cleaning and organizing to do. I managed to go through all the quilting stuff that was given to me a while ago. I found some great stuff for practicing my FMQ skills. I enrolled in a Craftsy class "Start Free Motion Quilting" it was on sale for $14.99 so I figured why not try it. So I may practice a bit of that tomorrow since the Owl quilt is complete :)
Here's an indoor picture of it. I'm hoping to get out tomorrow to do an outdoor picture. It was just too dark by the time I finished tonight.
It is quite large but this is what the client requested. I'm really liking how it came out. I added the extra border to get the size needed. If I make this quilt again, I may just add the small inner border. All in all, I am very happy with the result :)
Quilting is a new born again hobby of mine. I started a quilt over 7 years ago and then became too busy to finish it. I was reintroduced back into quilting and jumped in with both feet. My grandmother was the first quilter in my life and I still have quilts she made. I love how fabrics can just come together and create something new. This blog shows this side of my life. I answer every comment by email and/or by reply on here. Hope you enjoy my blog. Happy Quilting :)
