Good Morning, Quilters!

July 2, 2018

Machine Quilting, Birds, Lori KennedyGood Morning, Quilters!

I’m back at my computer again!  I’ve been away from my sewing machine and my computer for more than two weeks for my daughter, Deirdre’s wedding!

Happy Bride-to-be

It’s been a crazy, but lovely, two weeks of family, friends and celebrating the happy couple!

My sewing room converted into the hair and makeup room

Yesterday, the last of the guests took leave and I took a nap then headed straight to my sewing room.  I pulled out a quilt sandwich scrap and was back in action!

    Wow, that wedding date seemed to come around fast. Looks like you were fortunate to pull off an outdoor event between showers. Beautiful all the way around. Amazes me how you can sit down and turn out such smooth fmq lines with so much spinning in your mind (thus all the swirlies around the pretty birdy?). I’m pretty jerky yet, but enjoying the practice when I get a chance.
