Farmers wife quilt revival 1st pattern ordered and received. I really am itching to work on this but D's Stars needed some TLC first.
Saturday I was in the sewing room by noon. Turned on home reno shows and got moving. Sunday, I was able to put some time before the Superbowlers arrived but its slow going. Now that I've got a bunch of the squares for the stars cut it should move a bit faster right? I really like the way this is turning out! There is one seam that slightly puckered and am probably going to rip it before I join to the next section..
I think this will be rows of 5×5. Other than MT's quilt this is the first time I've made a quilt larger than the 45 x 60 batting size allowed. Up until last summer I thought pre packaged batting only came in craft, baby, queen and king sized only. I'd buy my batting at Fabricland when they had 50% off sales and thats the size Warm & Natural comes in. Fast forward to last summer when the LQS had a sale on batting. What do I see lap sized batting 60 x 60. After much discussion I bought bamboo batting. So it leaves the question are all the quilts I've made actually considered baby quilts? What makes a lap quilt?
On the to do list this week, buy two binders, clear binder sheet protctors to keep the patterns organized and get farmers wife book spiral bound.
