Making Progress on the Quilt

Posted on by debthumanblog

I’ve got the strips of fabric sewn together. Using a one-way fabric was interesting. I had to make sure all the eyes were going in the same direction.

I’ve drafted the little person. Now to figure out where the little person should be.

Next, I’m auditioning thread.

I think this one is going to be both hand and machine quilted. I’m thinking about how I can quilt barbed wire between the bars. I’ll outline the little person and the bars by hand.

I hit a sale at Superior Threads and my latest batch of thread arrived in the mail today.

Some of the thread is designed for hand quilting. Some will be for the embroidery machine. Some will be for the sewing room.
