However, it does not hide my tendency to brag about all my skillz.
For my birthday last year in May, I asked for a sewing machine. It came with a CD. I watched the CD and read the instructions for the machine and started quilting. I made one attempt to read about quilting by Googling it; however, one minute looking at that goobly garble, and I decided to forge ahead with my own rules.
I cut up the receiving blankets I had saved from when my son was a baby and sewed away.
When I had questions about how to finish it, I went to Hobby Lobby and asked the lady who works in the fabric section.
I ignored the HAG behind me who said, "Well, at least I know what I'm doing."
Voila! Here it is, hag!
So, then, I decided to go even more ambitious and make a huge, giant quilt with a unique pattern for my best friend for Christmas. I created my own pattern and bought fabric remnants in the sale bins.
Now that my friend has the quilt in her possession, I can share about THE ALBATROSS here:
The pictures do not do justice to how big it is.
I am taking a break from quilting for a little while. I may or may not tell you about my next project. I've always gotta have something going on.
