Such excitement!

I checked my email yesterday morning, only to find about a dozen game purchases from XBox Live… of course we don’t play games, we just have an XBox to stream Hulu!  Microsoft got hacked, along with our Discover card, so the day started by straightening that mess out.  Off to Little Rock to return Jim’s rental car, a quick spin through Pinwheel Fabrics Quilt shop (I picked up four possible blenders for my upcoming Glacier Star quilt), Flyin’ Fish for lunch, and back home, only to pull into our driveway as six or seven police cars whizzed by!

Apparantly there was an escaped convict on the loose… but he’s been caught today.

I fixed Jim and myself waffles and sausage again for breakfast this morning, then loaded up the iffy baby quilt and got it quilted, now I love it!

Isn’t this a great panto?  It’s pretty dense and took awhile to stitch out, but I just love it!

Although… it kind of bugs me a bit that of course the ABC’s are backwards on the backside.

I darkened the contrast on the backing fabric picture to show the quilting detail better, it’s actually “just barely there” pale yellow and blue batik.  I used a smidge darker than lime green thread for this one, Quilters Dream Poly for the batting.

I’m going to try a new method of binding on this one, with piping, Ricky Tim’s method.  I’ve always meant to try it and never have, so that’s the plan!
