The rain started at bedtime and kept up well into the morning. Not a great day outside but good for indoor pursuits. I finished meander quilting a string quilt. I have probably discovered why it is a good idea to use muslin foundation rather than paper that is torn out. The quilt has bias edges and seemed to grow as I worked. Now I am trying to decide whether to turn over the backing for the binding or to cut and sew binding on. Won't have to decide about that until Sunday afternoon. I'll post a picture after it is done.
I also cut foundations for some more string blocks. These are headed to
Heartstrings. They really don't take very long unless you use little strings. Today I was working with 2, 2.5 and 3" strings. So they were going fast until I had to run a couple of errands.
Tomorrow it is off to NJ to watch Kevin and Brian compete in a triathlon. Too bad the weather isn't going to be fabulous. Happy quilting! Bonnie
Bonnie, Thanks for participating in our HeartStrings Block Party - as soon as I get off the computer, I'm heading upstairs to make some more blocks too.
