I must confess, I envisioned the Cosmic Cabin quilt wrapped up by now, but life, as it often does, had other plans! A different non-sewing project spirited me away, but hey, three days still remain in the month – plenty of time to conquer my goal of finishing both these quilts!
I spent a couple days playing with my ProStitcher Studio and devised three different quilting designs, and my husband was smitten with one in particular. It's a blend of feathery swirls and striking geometric patterns. I'll post more details and close-up photos with the finish.
Now, this pattern is definitely denser than my usual style, but I'm all in for a little adventure. Surprisingly, now that I've quilted a few rows, it doesn't look as dense as I initially thought it might, so I'm thrilled I took the plunge. Chances are, once this quilt is finished, it'll find a new home with my husband's sister as a special birthday present. She's in for quite a treat!
For the coming week, I'd like to:
- Craft a backing for the Comet's Revival quilt
- Quilt the Comet's Revival quilt
- Make Quilt Labels for the finished quilts
- Bind the Cosmic Cabin so it can be Mailed
Anxious to see it when completed! Such a great project to revive those log cabin blocks!
ReplyDeleteOooh, can't wait to see the finish, Sharon!! I'm also interested in seeing your ProStitcher combination close up. I know your SIL will be very pleased with this quilt. I love log cabin quilts! Thanks for sharing with Monday Musings!
ReplyDeleteVery cool quilting! It's always amazing at what else pops on the have to do list that's not quilting.
