A few quilters from our church are taking one day a month to quilt together. Right now, there are six of us, but yesterday, only two. (Life happens.)
I started improvising mug rugs with Ricky Tims' "Cave Man" style in mind and wound up with a table runner. My dining room is mostly black, white, with blue ocean scene on the wall and a privacy screen with blue fabric, white leaves that look like flying seagulls, plus a large 'sculpture' of sea gulls landing on pier posts. When the quilt is done and on the table, I should take a picture?
Anyway,
this was fun, easy and now needs sandwiching and quilting. I'll do a
pillowcase flip and quilt it with wavy horizontal lines in black, from
edge to edge.
The
other quilter who joined me for the day is a newbie. She brought her
first quilt, a ragged edge one in flannelette for her granddaughter.
Wow, it is nice. She also made a couple mug rugs while she was here, and
helped me decide the arrangement for my runner.
It was a lovely day!
