Carry On....

I've started the hand quilting of my Swedish Bloom quilt...

    
I am savoring every stitch...and since there have been some rumblings of a huge snow storm here early next week....I think I will have plenty of time to stitch!

The Pony Club blocks have been a real treat to piece.  I am waiting for a few more fun fabrics from Crimson Tate for these blocks.  By-the-way, if you don't know Crimson Tate...you should.  She has great fabrics!  I would love a road trip to see her shop!  Only 3 hours for me!

    
happy thursday

    Darling!
    I had so hoped to make it to Crimson Tate while in Indiana, but I didn't. About 30 hours for me now :(

    I Can`t think of a better way to spend the time whilst it is snowing than to hand quilt, trust you do not get snowed in though

    I love seeing your hand work. Always so beautiful. I love the look but don't have the desire to do it at this point. Maybe someday.

    Ooops! My blogger feed missed this post-I'm sorry for being late in commenting! I am loving the combination of hand and machine quilting Mary! I am being more and more tempted all the time!

    Love the gingham in your Swedish blooms - certainly gives it a Scandi feel! Just how big are those Pony block Mary?
