Monday- on Betsy- the Quilt Machine

Last week I loaded the 2022 RBD Block Challenge Quilt vertical on Betsy. 

There was a lot of extra on the sides of the backing and batting.

I started the machine but it Restarted when I pushed to add a Pattern. UGG, I gave up.

So, this morning I thought I'd see if I could fit the Rhododendron Trail Mystery

 on this backing. Nope, just a little too short. 

Back to re-loading this one Horizontally. 

It fits much better and I will have less turning of the Quilt, less passes. 

Thinking about doing Block by Block???

Hmmmmm, sew many to choose from.

March is National Quilting Month!

This is my Honest sewing room picture. lol

Ready Set Quilt Festival Time Coming

 I took the last Quilt off 'Betsy' last night and

 tried to find the best Blue for it.

Blues are so hard to match.

Made a Quilt Shop run just before closing.

No luck finding the fabric I used for the Border.

The light blue was my first attempt...

Nope, not enough strips to go around. 

The Shadow Play was found in a small tote.

Hope I don't need it for THAT project.

It is an older Dye lot.

The Jenny Iron is an overkill on that wool mat. 

This was the Wild Backing I found in the STASH. 

Binding #2 stitched while watching TV.

My favorite part of the process.

Label in the Corner.

Thanks so much Melissa-Happy Quilting. 

'On The Go' is Done in less that 3 years.

I first Blogged it September 9th 2019.

3 Quilts and a Challenge Block, ready to deliver.

Upside-down picture, oops 😬 

It's a rest day for Betsy, going to the Temple.

Friday- Gotta have a Goal

I've been Posting over on Instagram with #quiltNON2017

Today it was about Goals.

I admit, I have a "TOPPER" Problem.

These 5 Quilts have been waiting too Long!

I want to have them Quilted by MAY!

 I will be starting a New Bonnie Hunter Quilt or Two at the PNW Retreat.

In other News.

Our Lacey Lacers are Busy learning New things.

This one got the Binding on.

It's # 5 on the UFO List on the Sidebar. Yea- DONE!

Gotta have an "In the Beginning" Quilt in the SHOW.

This weather has kept me from updating my Membership in the Tri-city Quilter's Guild.
