Happy Saturday!
Okay. I am taking this Finish Up Challenge seriously. Today, I sewed the Sparkling Cider vintage sheet blocks together. Sandwiched and spray basted the quilt. Made the binding and am almost finished quilting this puppy! It was a rainy day (big surprise!) so I tackled this quilt totally guilt free. I am trying my hand at loopy loops and once I got going, it went very well.
On our adventures this morning, we did manage to find a quilt shop. It was such a sacrifice to have to go inside but alas, I did. I picked up a package of this stuff. I am hoping it will help use up the big chunks of batting that are not quite big enough for a quilt. Has anyone tried this before? I imagine that you fuse uncut sides of the batting together and then you are away to the races!
Have a super fabulous Father's Day tomorrow!

Love the loopy quilting!
ReplyDeleteThat tape looks interesting - I usually just zig-zag my pieces together. Love the vintage sheet quilt, i might have to start haunting the thrift shops!
