Another quilt. Crazy, right? I have an excuse, and really, I do plan on finishing this one! I’m going to make it smaller, so I have a better chance of actually getting it quilted. The new machine will hopefully come in handy (the old one wouldn’t work for quilting – hence all the unfinished projects!)
Speaking of, you might ask why I don’t finish one of those quilts, now that I have a machine which can do so… and here’s where my excuse comes in…
I can’t figure out how to thread it!
I feel kind of silly admitting that, but it’s the truth. June from the quilting store threaded it for me before I left with it, but it’s since come unthreaded, so all sewing has come to a halt. The book doesn’t make it very clear, so I’m going to have to wait until I go in for my lesson on how to use it. Pathetic.
So, since I couldn’t sew last night, I decided to cut fabric for a new quilt. And here you have it -
Blocks and stripes, though I should come up with a better name. I plan on using a lot of white to complete the blocks and I think it will be cute. Maybe this one will be my first completed quilt.
New sewing machine!
It’s time… for a giveaway!
Love your fabrics!! Can’t wait to see all of these amazing quilt tops as finished quilts!! The new machine is going to make a breeze. Once you can thread it of course.
This quilt is going to be fabulous – I love it already!! And congrats on your new machine – how fun!!
you poor thing – that gorgeous new machine staring at you! I hope your lesson is soon
