I wrote about this quilt way back in 2014 and it still say here. I finally booked it with Deborah at the Village Square Quilt Shop to get it quilted.
All I had to do was press it! Sheesh...........I could have made another quilt in that length of time.
I can happily report it is now finished.
I got it back last week and after two evenings the binding was done. I added a sleeve in case we want to hang it.
now she can go out like a lamb.
Of course, you lay the quilt down and the snow somehow magically appears all over it. The back I get, but on the front?
I still need to put seed beads on for the eyes, but I wanted this much done to photograph the quilt while we still had snow on the ground. It isn't suppose to last!
Strange how you remember things. I know where I bought the backing for this. A store that is no longer in our Town. I like it and there is sort of stippling on the back.
I thought at one time, I could quilt this from the back sewing on those lines...........but then along came long arms and why would I put myself through that.
I took 10 minutes out of my busy, busy schedule and glued the seed beads on. "The farmer" asked me if I was going to sew them on and I looked at him with that expression..........
It will be rolled and stored until this coming Christmas when I will hang it on the dining-room wall for all to see.
After 14 years I would say it is darn well high time!
