Sneak Peek....


I am currently working on this quilt. Love it so far - I was debating on whether or not to fill in the outside feathers - but husband, mom, brother and sister said to leave it alone - what do you think?

Also - last day for our Halloween Charm pack deal - you can see the details here.

4 weeks and counting - I am way behind and this baby can't come early - but I am really ready to meet this little guy. Have a great week everyone! I can't believe it's already November!

  8. You are amazing... I can't believe that you are even asking anyone for an opinion! But I would like to bet that you do add some leaves to the outside border... but only $5. I'm not a big better!

  11. I'm sure your family said to leave them alone because your 8 months pregnant and they want you to rest!!
    I bet you fill in those feathers since it is bothering you but it will look great no matter what you decide!

  12. Your quilting looks like the back of a wedding dress, with the tiny little pearl buttons and the feathers like the gently gathered fabric with the designer touch. Vera Wang may see this as a sketch of one of her dresses. Very lovely.

  19. It's gorgeous just the way it is, but it will be gorgeous no matter what you do with it!

    I just have one question though...4 weeks until your due date and how in the world can you still reach far enough to work your long arm machine? ! Unless you're short enough for your belly to tuck in just under that bar! I'd love to see a picture!

  22. Its beautiful as it is. You do the best work I have ever seen. And it sweet to see ta you are always worrired about your quilting but you really are hard on you self. If I could be 1/4 as good as you are I would be tickled pink. Hope you can o what you need to before the little one comes. I also hope you can get some rest before because we know you won't get any after.

    Peace,

  27. I'm absolutely amazed you are still able to get to the longarm with your belly. :-) I say leave the feathers the way they are....too much may hinder binding anyway. :-) Best of luck to you!
