Yesturday evening, I finished the quilting on the Jean quilt. I did simple lines on either side of the red sashing and criss cross across the blocks. I think it looks good. I will show you the final quilt when I get the binding on.
You know, I was looking at the red cone of thread, when I finished and noted it doesn't even look like I used any. The large cone was given to me by a lady that used to work professionally making drapes on an industrial sewing machine. The cone is large. I have been using it a lot, but like I said it doesn't even look like I touched it. I like these cones, especially for quilting, because quilting uses up a lot of thread.
I also finished the binding on the Midnight flight quilt, but that will also have to wait until another post. I want to take it to the laundry mat to wash it. The quilt is too large for a good clean in my washing machine at home. I want to bring my log cabin quilt to wash as well and that as well will be for another post. I don't think I shared the finished quilt yet, but I will double check.
So with the midnight flight quilt done I will post my progress list. There are some things moving along.........and some I haven't touched yet.
