Having completed this month's bitty blocks, I changed the settings on my machine as well as the bobbin case and throat plate. While the throat plate was off, I cleaned a bit around the bobbin area. It didn't need much as I had just cleaned the machine last week. Now I was ready to do some quilting. I finished the quilt posted above and will donate it to charity through my quilt guild. For this quilt I cut the turquoise center strips from yardage but all the other fabrics came from a gallon size bag of strings. I nearly emptied the bag but not completely. It's amazing how far those string strips go!
This quilt is 24 9" finished blocks, set 4 x 6 and backed with fleece. I tried to use at least 1 novelty fabric in each block so this will make a great kid's quilt.
Next project:
one of 3 more quilt tops awaiting quilting and finishing.
