I finally got back to the longarm. The first I quilted in a while was one of my tops. Finished up 2 weeks ago. It went in the "to be bound" pile I believe the quilting pattern is called Popcorn.
The next was from a lady at church. I loaded it a week ago but finally quilted it today. I love the loops and stars pattern I used. Sometimes I substitute hearts for the stars. I'll take it tomorrow to quilt club for her to bind.
I'll be on the phone again tonight. Maybe I can figure out beforehand which is getting quilted next and I can load it then.
Before my ankle was healed I was crawling around on my hands and knees at the edge of the garden. So glad I did. We've had a week of rain since. Hopefully it will be dry enough to get back out there tomorrow. It will be difficult from now on to not overdo it outside. I must remember to not push my body so hard. Maybe that means I won't be too tired or sore to both garden and quilt in the same day.
I just noticed a quilt top I recently finished I forgot to post. I finished it in the last month too. I used a pattern called Asparagus Tips but mine is in rusty oranges and I'm calling it Burnt Carrots. I've used few patterns so I don't know if I can follow a pattern to the letter. I made a few revisions to the layout. I made 3 dark columns and 2 light. Yum! I love it.
I have 3 other flimsies close to done so stay tuned.
