Hidden Threads

After a much needed summer holiday, it’s back in the saddle, or sewing chair as the case may be.  It’s fall, or close to it, and I’m itching to get into those great amber, russet and brown fabrics.  Fons & Porter’s Love of Quilting magazine always does an entertaining fall issue, and this year is no exception.  Check it out.

On the finishing front, I’ve made a pact with myself to quilt and bind my fall quilts from last year and hang them.  Quilt tops are my favorite part of the quilting process, so the finishing off . . .quilt sandwich, free motion quilting, and binding are always when-you-have-time projects for me.  I like to do everything myself and sometimes my ambition exceeds my available time, so piles of tops sit until I find a way to shame myself into finishing them.  This is my year to decorate the walls with quilts, so wish me luck.
