Design Wall Monday

Guess what is still on my design wall.  Here is the upper left corner of my block of the month quilt – all sewn together.  I need to cut a lot more 3 1/2 inch green squares to make the rest of the border blocks.  The finished quilt will be 90 inches square and is outgrowing my design wall.  Check out the rest of the design walls on Judy’s blog.

Today I am going to Danielle’s house and am going to work on my Gone With the Wind quilt all day.  It needs to be done early in March so I need to concentrate on it.

On the quilting side, I just finished taking all the quilting out of a customer quilt.  The tension went bad and I didn’t notice in time.  I had finished a beautiful amish feather curl border and now it is time to put it back on the frame and start over.  Fortunately this doesn’t happen very often because it takes about 4 times as long to take it out as it does to quilt it in the first place.

Also, I am teaching a Beyond Beginners class tonight where they will be making a lap quilt on point.  This is a fun series of classes.  Busy, busy day!
