Red Red Red!

 Preschoolers and toddlers really affect our

song choices don't they!  Quilting up this 

red, "Not quite postage stamp" has me singing

the color song !  The next line is usually, 

"The table is reeed! "  Today it is definitely,

the squares are reeed! 

Here it is all ready to stitch, pins in place. 

After looking at the back , I decided to

quilt from the back so all the pins had to shift.

Next off, under the needle. 

Quilting up this many seams wonder, was 

not as difficult as I'd imagined! The back 

had the large, all over pattern and a suggestion

came into my brain to follow the pattern. 

Well, that didn't work. I thought I had mapped 

it out well enough to be continuous but after 

twice around the edge it got way out of control. 

So I switched it up and went with large overlapping

curves and it finished nicely.  I will save the clouds

and crescent moon pattern for my next quilting session. 

I would also like to do a simpler grid on a postage

stamp quilt so there are lots more in my future. 

I am still not sure if the chunky thread used on the top is 

my favorite, but I think only a quilter would have an

opinion and few of my quilts are given to fellow quilters. 

The edge of this quilt sandwich got zig zag because, Wow, 

what a lot of seams. 126 to be exact!

Then the line up for trimming made me appreciate the large 

tables in the work space. 

 The kitchen table got to keep its plants!

Who doesn't love a nice straight trim!

This quilt is currently unassigned but I am sure it wont be long

before a need comes up.  Just a binding decision to make and 

there will be another finish for 2023! 

Time slip!

 Here it is, all sewn up and with a binding!

The blue inner border really makes the red sparkle.

A bright sunny day made photography fun!

Stay safe and sew on !
