Motivated!

As I mentioned in the last post, I am eagerly awaiting a new ruler so I can get cookin' on a quilt from Material Obsession 2. 
Finished the placemats and table runner....and they will soon be making their way to Japan!

And began hand quilting (with perle cotton, of course) one of the two Far,Far Away 2 quilts for the twins!  Love quilting on linen....so soothing.

Nothing like a new book and some new fabric to light a fire under your bum...huh? Wishing you all a productive day....

  5. Hi Mary, I love the look of your hand quilting. It looks like you and I like many of the same things in quilts! Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting on my stripe quilt. It was fun to make, although I think I've had enough of stripes for awhile.

  6. Hand quilting is my next thing to learn/do. I love having some handsewing or embroidery to do on the couch at night. This looks just beautiful and sets your squares off perfectly!
