I'm finally back in the sewing room after my working/R&R trip to Porto, Portugal. I returned late Wednesday, Oct 13th and needed a day to recover! Last Sunday I finished trimming the binding for the quilt and then I took 4 evenings to hand stitch the binding to the quilt. Today I made the label and attached it.
I took the quilt to my Sassi Srippers Quilt Guild club on Thursday and they told me the name of the pattern was Hole in the Barn Door. I had no idea what the pattern was and surely appreciated the info. Here is the finished quilt.
Then I worked on the embroidery of the book cover for our Iota Epsilon yearbook, for our newest member, Joan. I finished that and will give it to her this weekend at our "Get-A-Way" weekend in Tickfaw State Park. I'm giving Paula the quilt then as well.
Those were 2 items needing to get finished before the end of October!
Now I want to finish the Mama's Boy Quilt that I started in January and work on a few items that I had plans for gifts. My machine quilting class is now rescheduled for November 13th. So I'm looking forward to that too.
Here is a few pics of Porto!
Until next time.....
