Details, details

I don't have anything new to show.

I have been working on Virginia's brother, Jimmy's

 quilt, similar to hers but

not quite.

Talking about Virginia's quilt,

 I have had quite a few questions about

her quilt.

 

Okay what's a post without pictures, right?

 

I was so excited to share pictures last week I forgot

to share the quilt details.

 

The quilt is 67X67.

I used 2 layers of batting, bottom layer is W&N 100 cotton,

top layer is a thin poly batting (don't remember the brand).

I usually use an 80/20 or wool (my favorite) on top.

I was trying to watch the cost, so I used the poly. 

 

 

Used Glide thread, I believe the color was linen.

Even thought the background was white I wanted to use an

off white thread.  Whenever I can I use pre-wound Glide bobbins.

 

 

 

The quilting shows nicely on the back also.

 

 

I was asked how the story or the meaning of the quilt

would be shared with Virginia and Jimmy.

This is the label that will be attached to the quilt back

 

 

 

Hopefully, I will be able to show Jimmy's quilt very soon.

 

 

Thank you for stopping by.

 

One more thing,

please say a little prayer for a friend

whose 4 day old son, didn't come home,

 but went to heaven instead. 

We never understand why, but

pray that they will find peace.
