Other projects...

I have to post these two projects that I am working on. The whole cloth quilt is a sample of what I am working on for Dr. Erik, he is my chiropractor. I played for a while working up the sample piece. I wanted to make sure the tension was correct with this new thread. I had thoroughly cleaned the machine and bobbin case along with putting a new needle in...that is a hard thing to do when your eye sight is not what it used to be...and to line that needle up just right, man that can be a challenging task. But if you don't change out the needle often enough, it will get weak and break on you while you are quilting. Ask me how I know this....from being lazy! There was a lot of lint that had built up in the bobbin case from the previous project. I will not be putting the straight line designs in his quilt (the quilt, it is for his mom's b'day), that was just me having fun. I need to remember to bring the sample in to show him the colors I have chosen. The funny part, the fabric is a spring green, you cannot tell either, looks white. The thread is pear green. The backing is a sage green.
The other pictures are of the "Blackford's Beauty" also known to some as "Jared Takes a Wife" pattern from Bonnie Hunter of quiltville.com. I originally planned on giving this quilt to a friend as an open house gift, but remembered that someone told me she decorates in asian....darm, I guess I will have to do something else with this quilt. I am going to finish it though.

Time to go get ready for my day.....till later y'all.....
