Design wall pile up!

 

I need more wall space!!
When I decided to pull out a layered top
 to figure out the quilting ,
 I just pinned it up over the little pink quilt




Then when I found the stretched stars flimsy, 
 I pinned it up 
to measure and have a look!
It is a pile up! 
 What a great problem to have!!






Like my long term project Big Red,
this batik quilt has been in use
 for 2 years as
the family movie quilt,
 pins, batting hanging out and all.



It was delayed since the minky
 back I had planed for it, 
got used for a senior's quilt.
I finally pulled out a flannel back, 
but then had to wash it and piece it. 




It is all pinned up and ready to quilt.
We will see if this cold snap gets 
productive. One lesson learned tho, 
I use safety pins and the best 
tool I found for closing them 
is a piece of adhesive tape 
on my index finger!


Really saves the pain of pins sticks1
Definitely going to make it a top tip!

Stay safe and sew on !
