That's the name of my new finish made with the 2015 Modern Bow Tie Block Swap right here at FunWithBarb.
Just Keep Swimming - 46" x 46"
The backing is made with 3 different fabrics in a big nine patch.
I gave it this name because of the quilted wavy lines.
While I was quilting it, I kept thinking: "just keep swimming, just keep swimming...."
An early morning photo of the back of my quilt in the sun. I love that texture - mildly obsessed, actually.
Here is a close up of that funny comic strip fabric.
I used 5 different colored threads of 2 different weights.
My quilting buddy, Nancy, got me these fabulous yoga gloves that are perfect, I repeat Perfect for machine quilting.
In other news:
we had another horrid weather event yesterday. Snow, wind, icy rain....
Here is a (bad photo) of a poor bluebird coming in for a bite to eat.
My new counters and Range are installed. The sink is still not hooked up but it will all get done eventually. (That is a Blue Apron recipe card - I love Blue Apron!)
Is there anything better than pretty contact paper? Nope.
I had planned on taking these photos of my new fishy quilt at the beach....oh well.
I'll be visiting
The Sister Choice Quilters Guild in Virginia on Friday with a presentation of my
Quilts: The Story of My Life presentation and trunk show. I'm booking fall 2017 and 2018 and I would love to visit your guild, shop or group. Just send me an email.
