Entries in Bali Sea Stars (1)

Holding my breath...

Crossing my fingers, toes, and probably my spine before I’m through, but here’s hoping to finish the tshirt quilt today without further frogging!

Perhaps I would do better to set aside the coffee this morning and instead set myself up with some shots of tequila?  Mmm… that could get downright dangerous, I’m an extreme lightweight!

All in all, it’s turning out well enough.  I can only quilt one handed on this… left handed at that, since the other hand has to remain free to keep taming the squirmy shirts, and old lefty just isn’t as talented as I’d like her to be!

I’m just doing some random swirls freehand, it feels so strange for me to work from the front of the machine as I rarely do!

I’m on a mission to use up all the Bali strips I have in my stash…. two quilts down and the next will be coming from a mix of blues and greens.

I was going to make another of the Sweet Menagerie Nine Patches with these, but I’ve enough of these colors to do something else… perhaps another Bali Sea Star like I made Jim last year? 

I finished binding the wacky log cabin yesterday, and got it washed and dried. I had originally planned to sell it, but as I was binding it I decided it would make a perfect Christmas present for my grandson this year.

When I finished the purple and green quilt in the post below, I think I’ll send it to my sister-in-law in Missouri, she’s recently opened an art gallery/gift shop and see if it sells.
