This n That #1
We're leaving tomorrow for a 3 day visit to Palm Springs, so not much quilting is getting done. I did hem a curtain for my DDIL in CO so she can try out how they hang and what length she wants them (got it off in the mail, too), finished my secret block (more on that later) and unstitched my 4 inchers to replace the large block. So I'm leaving you with a photo or two:
Here's Alan at 2 months. Last weigh - in said 7.9 pounds so he's right up there where he should be if he had been born Dec 20th instead of Nov. 11th. He's so precious!
Then here's a scrappy quilt tip - when I'm making a scrappy quilt I use left over thread and partly filled bobbins to sew them together. If the quilt is most one color - I'll try to use color in that family, but for truly scrappy quilts, it's whatever partial thread is on hand for blocks making AND quilting.

ReplyDeleteCute little guy! I use leftover threads for scrappy quilts too, great way of getting rid of spools with just a little bit left.
