The Monday post is a bit late this week for the second time in less than a month. Let's just say the morning didn't get off to the best start, but everything has lined out since then.
I spent most of last week working on prepping Unity (Bonnie Hunter) to send out for quilting.
I ended up with quite a nest of loose threads at the end. But the quilt is pressed and folded so it can be packaged up.
So this afternoon I need to track down a box, pull some batting and finish getting it ready to take to the post office tomorrow.
I didn't finish the prep work till late yesterday afternoon, so there wasn't much time to work on much else, but I did get the last row of blocks for the Melodic Mystery (Meadow Mist Designs) quilt sewn together .
The top 4 rows are sewn together. I need to add row 5 to the bottom, then I can sew the 2 halves together. The next step is to finish the border. This project will become my focus project till I get the quilt top assembled. I usually try to keep 3 projects on the active works in progress list, so I need to find something else to add in. Preferably something that still needs the blocks pieced.
Linking up with the typical Monday Design Wall and Patchwork & Quilts Monday linky parties.
That’s an amazing wad of threads. Good on you for cleaning them all up. Meadow Mist is looking good.
ReplyDeleteYour Melodic Mystery looks very pretty, love the colors. Well done with Unity, ready to be sent.
ReplyDeleteHave a great stitching week!
Thank you for sharing, and linking up.
Congratulations on finishing the clean-up on Unity. That's not much fun, but makes such a difference for the quilting. Your mystery quilt is looking great!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice relief for you to have Unity ready to go. I've never paid much attention to threads on the backs of my quilts, and I really should! Melodic Mystery blocks are really pretty.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry Monday got off to a rough start; hopefully the rest of the week is smoother. Congratulations on getting Unity prepped and ready to send for quilting!
