Crown Royal Bags

Everyone I have talked to said these things are a mess to work with.  Well, they are right!!  I am doing a custom quilt for a customer out of Crown Royal Bags.  ULCK!!   This is about 1/2 of the bags.

Here is the first half cut up into 4 inch squares.  I have one with the embroidery and one plain.  Dont you like the yellow underneath??  I am using that for some borders.  Will look good, I hope.

Center completed. Well, what do you think??  No pattern, just making it up as I go.  So far, so good.  I will be cutting up the rest of the bags tomorrow.  I did add another row, but will let that be a surprise.
This stuff is cheep flannel, it stretches and will shrink.  I washed one to see what it will do.  I also did the burn test and determined it was cotton.

Tomorrow will be working on this, again.  I am aiming for a nice size wall hanging.  Wish me luck and stay tuned for the results.



Happy Quilting,

Waynes quilt

Wayne has been at it again.  He started this last year, then hunting season came along.  You know, eat, sleep and breath Deer!!  He finished this up the first of January.  He made this all by himself.  Even designed it himself.  The narrow black and white border that looks like dots is really black peace symbols on white.  It turned out good.  I am proud of my husband.

Happy Quilting,

I am still here!

Susans quilt.  A big one.  This is a pattern from Bonnie Hunters book "Leaders and Enders".  Susan did hers very scrappy.  I just love it.  I didnt have anyone to help hold it up, so you get this view and one of the center of the quilt. Dont ya just love it.  I do.  Think I will add it to the "to do"list.  Boy that list is getting long. lol

Where have I been??

A very good question.  Right here is the answer.  But busy.  I am the registrar for QSC Spring Meeting.  That means lots of mail in and out for about 2 months.  Keeps a gal busy, but I enjoy it.  Also, I am still busy quilting customer quilts.  I just need to get a few pictures taken for you.  This week is very busy, a meeting every day but Friday.  I think I will crash on Friday.  So, keep quilting and think of me while you do.

Happy Quilting
