A bit of zig-zag stitching-

Around the face - and for the whiskers and mouth -

On a couple of "Lion" quilts that were in the pile to be quilted - ;))


Some more zig-zag stitching around the bottom of the mane -

Until I got the thread caught on something -

Turned it over -


And found this -

Stuck to the back -


Well, that's not good -

That part belongs on the sewing machine -

Not sewn to the back of the quilt - ;))

And wouldn't you know -

I was THIS far from the end - ;))


So I fixed that -

Got the manes sewn down -

And the tails and the "feet" stitched in - ;))

I have a little clean-up still to do -

Remove the basting stitches and neaten it all up -


Then I'll take some "glamour" shots - ;))

Stay tuned - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

  1. Ouch! That part does NOT belong in a quilt. It just doesn't look "all snuggly" to me.

  2. I think that deserves a prize for wackiest thing I've ever seen to the back of a quilt. Sure, I've seen other quilt parts, even a free motion glove, but part of the machine? You've got some crazy skills! I hope the process wasn't too painful to get the project back on track and I hope it doesn't happen again! I look forward to the glamour shots...

  4. It is one thing to do that by machine but a couple of times I have managed to stitch a few things to the back by hand. Oh well, all's well that ends well....
