Texture -

 

 

Was all I was going for when I quilted - 

 

My Antique Squirrel - BIG BROTHER version - 

 

I'm still learning how to control my new machine - 

 

And my quilting is not that great yet - 

 

But I think I nailed the "texture" part - LOL - 

It should look awesome when it's washed -

 

 

Today I got it trimmed - 

 

Then I cut the strips for the binding - 

 

The BROWN was cut from the backing trimmings - 

 And will be the main color - 

 

The TURQUOISE was cut from the same yardage as the "squares on point" - 

And will be the flange color - 

 

I'll set all of this aside tomorrow - 

 

Because I want to prepare another backing - 

 

In case my "zipper" one doesn't work - 

 

I plan to baste the other halves of the zippers to the leader cloths -

 

While the guy is dismantling the old frame and building the new one - 

But that might not be possible - 

 

So I should probably have another backing ready to pin -

 

And another piece of batting - and another quilt top ready to go - 

 

Just in case - 

 

I like to have "options" - LOL - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
