I'm not crazy enough to stand through marking this whole thing. I put it low enough to pull a chair up to the window. |
I used a purple marking pen I picked up at JoAnn's Fabric. I did test it and it does wash out. |
The quilt is spray basted, but I did add a few pins. |
Leah, I would also like to say thank you for QAL Wednesday! I am having so much fun!
Now on to some other projects I worked on this week. I finished quilting my sewing machine cover, just need to bind and put on some ties.

I did my homework too and found it rather difficult to do. I love your gothic pin cushion.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness- love the quilting on your sewing machine cover!
ReplyDeleteI love you hand dyed fabric! Awesome color!
ReplyDeleteYour hand dyed fabric is amazing, and the purple marking pen looks like it showed up really well!
ReplyDeleteStunning stuff as usual!
ReplyDeleteYour hand dyed fabric looks great, and I love the way you've arranged the coloured elements in your Expanding Possibilities quilt!
ReplyDeleteMiss Pat - you are definitely the overachiever!! Wonderful projects. Thanks for linking them all on the list - I especially like the Expanding Possibilities quilt; that's spectacular!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job -
To me you look like a pro already. Love your quilting - I still havent really tried out FMQ just because my little machine wouldnt do it.
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely projects! I can't wait to see what the whole cloth project looks like when it's all quilted!
ReplyDeleteWow! You have been really busy. All your projects look great.
ReplyDeleteI especially like the new quilt with flying geese, the colors are so vibrant. also the pebbling on you iPad case looks stunning.
Pat, I love all your works in progress! They are inspiring. Sounds like I'm not the only one that looks forward to Wednesdays...
ReplyDeleteLove the fabric, also! I wasn't smart enough to tape my fabric in a spot where I could sit. And since I'm short, I had pretty sore arms by the end of it! Did you have a pattern for the iPad case? I need to make one.
