Good evening everyone! Can you believe Thanksgiving is a week from today? I have got to get busy!!! I finished up a cute quilt today by Barb. This is going to be a gift for a baby shower. We used a design allover called Barnyard with a bright yellow thread and cotton batting. It is hard to tell, but there are tractors, barns, cows, etc allover this quilt. Super cute! I also started a quilt by Debra. It has presented certain challenges with the outer border being chenille. A lesson learned - I can not quilt on chenille. It gets stuck in the hopper. I did manage to stitch in the ditch and that seems to be holding it in place. I am slowly quilting pine cones and pine needles all over in the middle and it is looking really nice. I'll get it finished tomorrow and get more pictures posted.
And finally, I got some new thread in. It is called Glide and is supposed to be stronger and have fewer thread breaks. What I love about it is the sheen on the thread and they also make some fun metallics and glow in the dark threads. We shall see how it all works. I can't wait to try them out! Have a great evening!
