Apparently September is National Sewing Month! I had no idea. I spotted in on my Garden Path Quilts Facebook page. I've certainly been quilting the past few days. It feels good. I finished my "Sedona" wall hanging and will post a photo when I get my rear in gear.
I'm also just finishing up on a Kansas Trouble's wall hanging called "Pinwheels in My Garden". Fitting, eh? Except I did a boo-boo yesterday. I had the top centered on my backing at one point, then took it off to put the batting down, and thought I had recentered in to avoid the cut-out on the backing. I trimmed the whole unit to a couple of inches beyond the top and discovered I hadn't centered the top after all. See my mistake? My friend, Jane, stopped by and I showed her my dilema. She quickly piped up, "that's a good place for a label!". What a smartie! So I went on to pin the top down and began quilting it. I am now putting all the applique in place. I'll pop up another photo once I have the whole thing done.
Happy quilting!
