Yesterday, while we were all penned into the house, I managed to get a binding done and a bunch of pressing but today I decided it was quilting day! Last night I pulled backing and batting and got it all loaded up on the long arm so I could just start as soon as the coffee kicked in.
And of course I waffled about how to quilt it. I spent an hour scrolling through Instagram, then watched video after video on YouTube, then flipped through my sketchbook. I finally just decided to do more graffiti quilting practice. (Which was my first idea, so I don't know why I didn't just trust my gut instead of wasting hours.)
Luckily, once you get started, it's pretty easy to just keep going.
And one more picture of the snow. Lucky has decided she likes the snow in the North better than the heat of the South!
Linking up with Freshly Pieced for WIP Wednesday and Sew Fresh Quilts for Let's Bee Social #57!
What pretty snow! We're having a very warm, dry winter here in New Mexico, it's 65* today and does not feel like January! Love the quilting, it's very pretty. I do the same thing, wasting time trying to decide what to do and end up just doing my first plan!
ReplyDeleteLet It Snow ... Let Me Sew! A perfect day all around!
ReplyDeleteLove your snow pictures! It's 79 right now in Fort Worth & I could use a chilly photo! Your quilting looks awesome! I wish it would snow here so I could stay home & sew all day. The season isn't over so it might soon. Have fun and stay warm!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures of your kids in the snow. Very nice quilting as well.
ReplyDeleteYay for graffiti quilting - it is looking great. It looks like the snow days are being thoroughly enjoyed in your home. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your snow pictures - its sunny here melting what little bit we got! I've spent hours faffing around on IG, magazines etc instead of doing, quite a bit this year so far. Grafitti looks great!
ReplyDeleteWow! You have even more snow than we do here in Ontario! Your quilting looks absolutely fantastic! You were right.... Just go with the gut.
ReplyDeleteI love snow days! Your quilting is lovely! Any favorite You Tube videos you refer to for quilting inspiration?
ReplyDeleteI used my second snow day to do the same thing. Looks like Monday might be another productive SnEW day :)
