piecing and musing
still sitting in a piecing sort of mood these days. this patriotic pinwheel is coming together quite nicely as a result. it will make a festive table cloth for upcoming summer festivities by the fire pit! being smaller, and most likely to need frequent cleaning, i think i shall machine quilt this one. usually, i would rent a long-arm machine, but since it is not so large, i will work on my home machine quilting skills. it's been a while, so perhaps a few scraps for practice might be wise. ha!

DeleteI'm impressed by your precision in piecing ... something that has eluded me, especially with a sewing machine
ReplyDeletethank you, liz. for some reason, whenever i begin piecing, i find myself transforming into a bit of a seam nazi. ha!
