Quilt Diary - Weeks 3 & 4
The last 2 weeks have been all about sewing the quilt - firstly sewing some wavy quilting lines with embroidery thread, and then sewing lots and lots of crystal beads on top. My deadline for getting the quilt to the post office was today, and to be honest I would liked to have sewn a few more lines of beads on (as well as more quilting lines), but I ran out of time and had to stop (I was also running out of beads, despite making 2 orders!). Still, I guess I should be pleased that I managed to make a quilt in such a relatively short time. The next time I see it will be at the Festival of Quilts in August, so the final quilt will be revealed then!
