Great day to be quilting!

 Back to longarming! I have a Quilt of Valor on today. On the wall behind the frame you see my current quilt top in progress. It's the Circa 1880 quilt I've been working on since last January.

Jelly Roll Project

 I took a break from sewing rows for my Circa 1880 quilt to make something for my quilting studio. I found a pattern for a valance on the modabakeshop site way back in 2013. I bought a jelly roll and some yardage at the time and then it sat on my shelf all this time.  And I decided today was the day it was going to get started!   You can find the pattern by clicking here!  

I made a few changes to the pattern but I think it came out great! I used a jelly roll by 3 sisters called Oasis and some yardage.  It hangs over vertical blinds.

Perfect day to spend time quilting!

 My first quilt on the new longarm is a customer quilt.  I used a basting stitch for the first time and it was a dream!  I'm going to love using this machine.  This weekend it is cold and rainy in NC, a perfect day to quilt!
