free motion quilting!!
Posted on: August 26, 2011
I DID IT!!! I finally took a deep breath and put on my big girl panties and used my Brother sewing machine to Free Motion Quilt my latest completed top, Pure Love. Thank goodness the top was small and manageble…
I must say, I didnt think it would turn out so well.. I did an all over Meander and then used Stippling around the heart in the center block. Now all I need to do is bind it and I have another finished project!!
school is starting…

FINALLY!! My kiddos are finally “back to school”. They start back on Thursday… although they are already busy with Volleyball practices and Cheer practices. It is truly amazing how quickly the summer flies by! It seems as if in only just began!
And while I am very glad to get back to the routine that school brings… I am NOT looking forward to the drama that seems to descend apon a house full of teen girls when school is in session. Pray for us!!

A day for celebration to be sure!!
