It took a while


I decided last week that it was time I finished up a piece of fabric that had been moved around the sewing room for days and days.  It had a purpose.  It was going on the new furniture in the living-room
Remember this quilt?  Well, I had left overs and they were staying here.  For us!!
 I laid the piece on the long arm, same thread, same pantograph and stitched it out in less time that you can say "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

 Sorry, this thread which is beautiful has been discontinued by Superior Threads.  I absolutely loved it too.  It just worked on so many quilts I made.
 Here it is.  I didn't take step by step photos because I'm not good at putting in zippers.  I just do my best and please don't ask me to do anymore.

 I still had fabric, so I figured it was time to get those Christmas mug rugs put away and made these up.  Shoot, all I had to do was cut the fabric and add some binding.  Yes, binding, because the Scotties was on and I needed handwork.
 I sincerely hope that no one turns them over.  This is one of my fabrics that made me shake my head and say.....what was I thinking???
and done!!

Every Wednesday on Instagram, I post a little bit of wisdom.  I think I'll bring that over here.  It will be up for a week and then a new one posted.
