Traditional style quilting in a tropical environment. Tuesday, September 30, 2014. In and out of the studio.

Traditional style quilting in a tropical environment. Friday, August 8, 2014. Well the cast on my arm has been removed but mobility is still very poor with my left hand so it will be a lot more one handed stab stitch quilting for me. To make this task easier I am now the proud owner of new multi function hands free frame. I am looking forward to getting back to some of my other numerous works in progress and hope this will be soon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Quilts In The Barn.

http://quiltingowl.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Traditional style quilting in a tropical environment. Monday, March 30, 2015. New and old projects. I have had lots of distractions over the last few months and have been very remiss keeping up with this blog. In between these distractions I have been working on lots of different projects mainly UFOs but not too many finishes as yet. There have been some additions to my pincushion collection, some gifts from dear friends and some I have made myself or purchased at craft fairs. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
