It seemed like this week was really looong, but the weekend is finally here. Even better, we got about half of inch of rain yesterday. It’s not a lot, but we’ll take anything we can get. I managed to get a couple of customer quilts done this week.
I used the champagne bubbles quilt design in ivory thread. I don’t know what the quilt pattern is—does anyone else think it looks like PacMan?
This one is a New York Beauty.
I’m pretty sure the border is an original design. It’s really creative. I used gray thread and basket weave quilting design. The quilting returned out good, and I think it enhances the quilt.
I came home yesterday and took about a two-hour nap, so I’m evidently still run down. I’m trying to take care of myself and get plenty of rest. I’m not too good about that, but I’m trying! I’ve been getting a little behind on my customer work, and I don’t know when I will be able to catch up. I have a busy week coming up, and I am flying to Utah on the 20th for a week-long longarm boot camp class. I’ve already made kennel arrangements for the dog, and I just need to get myself rested up and psyched up!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Your customer quilts turned out great. I hope you keep feeling better and have more energy. The boot camp - is that in the mountains of Utah, or near them? Sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteI’m not sure—I’m really not familiar with Utah. The town is near Salt Lake City, but I don’t know if that’s near the mountains.
Deleteyes you need to rest up more to make it through a boot camp or you might just need to excuse yourself for an hour before you collapse and take a nap there.
ReplyDeleteLOL! That’s the truth!
DeleteBeautiful quilting, Carolyn. Maybe you’ll squeeze in another quick nap today before the busy week begins. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I did manage to get a short nap.
DeleteComplimentary quilting--very nice! You'll be spending a whole week at longarm camp?! That's a lot of class!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, a week of all-day training. I think it will focus primarily on the software side of things.
