Home Alone...Day #2

Last night I didn't finish the quilting but I did manage to do most of it & tape out the straight stitching lines. It was quite late by the time I finished so off I went to bed. Then this morning I did finish all the quilting..all that's left now is the binding (which I WiLL stitch on tonight) ...then only hand sewing & attach label. I was worried about making the deadline to give it to my daughter this weekend but I'm on track...phew !!!

Just to have a break I decided to make a quilt for the "Blankets of Love" drive that I am running. I only have the top done at this stage but this project will come together VERY quickly. I also planned another, using up left overs, which is always a good thing.

Then this afternoon a courier delivered a quilt book I ordered, so perhaps I'll have a break after dinner and give it the once over.
Anyway, I enjoyed another successful day.

My sewing room is getting quite a workout with hubby away!

Your little quilts look lovely.
Can you tell me why do you tape out straight lines??

Sounds like you're having a really good time. How long are you home alone for? I was just thinking I could send you some of my stuff and you could finish them for me?
