I’m such a homebody.
JJ ended up going to the Lakers v Nuggets game, inviting me along, but I’m really not a fan of basketball. He’s been working like a crazy person, and we hadn’t seen each other much this week. Because of that I debated going. I told JJ that it’d be a waste of a ticket to use on me; so I sent him off to have fun. I could better spend my time and money elsewhere. And we agreed to Date Night tonight 🙂
This is what I did Friday night. Pieced and sewed and pressed and squared and pieced 2 more columns of my New Wave Quilt.
I’m not loving the spoon fabric (which you can’t see in this photo), or the flowery one either so I decided to place those on the top and bottom of the columns. I got into somewhat of a rhythm, stacking, sewing, pressing, squaring, sewing and pressing again.
Lessons Learned:
- Dude, this 1/4″ presser foot is amazing. Best $10 I’ve spent.
- The actual sewing is such a small part of the process.
- Pay attention. I’ve ripped out 2 seams.
What a great project can’t wait to see the finished quilt.
It’s fun to watch this quilt come together. I’m anxious to see the first shot w/the pattern visible.
Is this your first quilt? You have some wonderful fabric choices in there. And yes, a 1/4″ foot is a quilter’s best friend—along with a good seam ripper. I prefer to call it a seam eraser; much more user friendly. 🙂
Pretty colors! I don’t do well with sports, although I’d ten times rather go to a game than see sports on tv. I hope you have a fun date night!
