My musings on my life, on raising two sons, on my grief, on God and my faith and on the many books I read.

Day 16
So this is my second quilt and first attempt at a picture. Really this is my 3rd quilt. I did a quilt for a couple getting married, a baby quilt and this one. Gary picked out all the fabric and the pattern. I hand stitched the entire top together. My friend Joyce put the back 3 pieces together for me, quilted all three layers and put the binding one. Once I got it back my friend Lynn and I finished off the binding. It takes me a bit of time, because most times I quilt while watching Days of Our Lives. I will be working full time this year, so I'll have to find another time to quilt.
Next on my list is to finish a quilt top I've been working on for awhile and put another baby quilt together. Then I have to decide which quilt to start next..... I also want to fix Ry' s quilt. I have a couple of sides where the back isn't wide enough. It will be harder to fix than I like.
I bought a quilt top at an auction last night. One day I will send it to Joyce to quilt, after putting on a bigger border.
