Who knew what November would bring???
I sure hoped for a better outcome... America deserves better.
We have completed the planting of the nearly 10,000 Tulips and will have a visit again from Drew, Jake and Elder Frischnecht from Utah this week.
On the Quilty Front- I have Hand Quilted this Cradle quilt
It was made from some of the same 4- Patches that I sewed for the 50 Shades of Brown SAL.
I am still not a big fan of hand Quilting, but "Betsy" is at home.
I don't have much choice, plus it makes it more primitive and that is how my
Pioneer Ancestors would have done it.
My Frolic Quilt got Borders added. I didn't make it as a Full-size or on-point.
I even got a picture in the little bit of snow that fell.
This was taken at the Kanesville Tabernacle in Council Bluffs.
It is the size I felt I could handle while here in Nebraska.
But I feel it needs to be a little bigger. Thus I'm asking for HELP!
I bought the Floral fabric last November to use as a Border or for the backing of Frolic.
The receipt was still folded inside.
I used the Fairy Frost as the Inner Border before the Pieced Border.
Should I repeat it or go with one of the other choices shown?
Monday is my next P-Day, but our visitors come that afternoon.
So there's a little time for me to get a few more opinions.
My sister and Julie H like the Limey green repeated, and one person for the Grunge -the bottom one. Olivia likes the middle print.
Tuesday next week looks like a SNOW Day so I could finish it then and get it taken in for the "frosting" at a local LQS. This one will be Quilted by Check. Like Eleanor Burns, lol
I thought of sending it home to a friend, but changed my mind on that.
I'll keep supporting local folks while I'm here.
It saves some extra expense for shipping too.
