I took a vacation day yesterday to do some sewing. The morning was spent finishing a project that I'll share with you soon. The afternoon went downhill as I attempted to FMQ on my longarm. I was having thread issues, which I suspect were operator error. I changed the tension and tried to slow down my quilting (yes, I am a speed demon). Finally...success....but by then it was late, and it's difficult to take photos in the dark.
I started this baby quilt last week. But since I was using yardage, I was able to piece two baby quilts.

| Baby Quilt #1 |

| Baby Quilt #2 |
I used Essential Quilting Thread in Sweet Pink. It stands out, but I really like it.

| Kona: Chocolate and Camellia |
Baby quilt #1 will be delivered tomorrow. Baby Quilt #2 will stay in my pile for when I need a baby quilt.
I love quilts like this where you can really see the fabric. These are both adorable.
ReplyDeleteWiggler frustration is yucky....but these quilts are awesome!
ReplyDeleteYay you times two!!
Anja, you are a machine! Lovely quilts! Despite the frustrations, your FMQ is awesome!
ReplyDeleteBoth turned out great! I really really love that color combination. Congrats on your finishes.
ReplyDeleteYour meandering is really coming along! Very smooth... I like the way the pink pops on the brown.
ReplyDeleteI love the colour/fabric choices and I think the pink thread was the perfect choice.
ReplyDeleteWow! They both look great, Anja! And you never know when you'll need a quick gift for a baby shower. I need to stock up my pile again for baby shower gifts.
ReplyDeleteAwesome job Anja! Your quilting is great and the pink thread was the perfect choice.
