08 Feb Coming along…
Just finished marking my bird wall quilt. I hope to get the quilting done today but have a couple of appointments that will interrupt me.
Marking a quilt is my usual way of preparing for quilting. Since I do a lot of straight line quilting, I like to make sure the lines are actually pretty straight. Many people seem to be able to do this without marking, but I have tried to do it that way and I am not a member of this lucky group.
I have hope that, one of these days when I can manage to get a new sewing machine, I might be able to sew straighter lines and even master free motion quilting!

Posted at 08:19h, 09 FebruaryI do straightish line quilting on occasion – I love when the lines wiggle a little, but then I suppose that's a rebellion from all the straight lines used when drawing at work each day. Love the background fabric, and am looking forward to seeing how this turns out
