Yesterday was my last chance to use the car before Jeff took it for two weeks to visit his family. I was hoping to find some more rust-colored fabric. It was slim pickings. Apparently rust is not in style right now. I went to three stores and I only found one decent match. That beige also isn't in style either.
I had enough fabric to finish Chilhowie, but I'm hoping to make a second lap quilt from the same color fabrics (in a different pattern) and it would be nice to have some overlap.
Today, I worked on a paid quilting gig. It's a pretty scrappy baby quilt. I quilted it with Wholehearted by Christy Dillon. I used a bright fuschia Maxi-Lock thread and it turned out well.
Now that I have finished all the projects with a deadline, I can get back to finishing the Chilhowie lap quilt. I've prewashed the new fabrics so I'll try to finish cutting out all the pieces tomorrow.
