The latest refugee quilt is on the machine and about one third quilted. I'm using a pantograph pattern so far untried. It is 10" so goes fast and I picked it because I could center it and the motifs will form a bit of a border down the sides. The border there is plain so it works well instead of doing a freehand design to fill that space. I'm basically lazy.
Vancouver is lovely in spring. The Japanese cherry trees are starting to bloom and there are spring bulbs flowing all over the place. It was rainy Friday, sunny Saturday. We went to the aquarium and it was a surprise for me. If ever in that city, be sure to go. The fish and other indoor exhibits are wonderful, but so are the outdoor ponds with penguins, otters, seals, and other water-loving creatures. Since it was Saturday, the place was full of children and watching the little ones watching the critters was almost as much fun as seeing the thousands of examples of God's imagination swimming and chasing each other through coral and other colored under-sea life. This tank is plain, but most of them look as if you are deep-sea diving and the sun is shining through the water. Lovely!
