So sorry you have to get new fabric for T#1"s quilt! lol I sure liked the fabrics you had picked for that, will be interesting to see what he prefers. I like you new pattern too. I have a question. How to you sit and position your quilting hoop when you are doing hours of quilting to prevent your back and neck from hurting?Rebecca in AKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06150717319142161546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433230603334501738.post-28744514975209335892014-08-11T11:31:00.336-05:002014-08-11T11:31:00.336-05:00We stood in our front yard last night & it was...We stood in our front yard last night & it was like daylight!<br /><br />You've put so much time in this blanket.. its going to be one of your best, isn't it? :)Rebecca Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03965781380511208862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433230603334501738.post-48126384943301775622014-08-11T11:04:57.194-05:002014-08-11T11:04:57.194-05:00We made a point of going down to the beach to get ...We made a point of going down to the beach to get some photos of the "super moon" There were several photographers doing the same thing we were.

I hope you saw it.<br />I have loved those quilts by Country Threads for so long. <br />I have done one quilt from them and I loved working with their patterns.<br />I have always wanted to do the one on the right. <br />I bet you were happy when you got that book. I do like Jinny Beyer.<br />I just can't even imagine that much rain. It sounds like heaven to me. <br />Have a wonderful new week. <br />Farm Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998621464797636686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433230603334501738.post-49864293567277229742014-08-10T23:31:37.489-05:002014-08-10T23:31:37.489-05:00Those are great medallion quilt patterns.

I do prefer the look of the lines on the bark fabric. <br />Fall feels like it is arriving early this year; so many friends have commented on it as well. I hope not, because that may mean we are in for a hard winter. Hope you had a great afternoon stitching. I knew Judy Matheson, who is a renowned designer of Mariners Compass quilts and I could never do anything with applique-I like your alternative better.<br />Hugs,<br />NoreenNanaNor'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608980502430055753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433230603334501738.post-48468030211718675322014-08-10T15:29:48.254-05:002014-08-10T15:29:48.254-05:00Enjoy the moon gazing!

So exciting that you were able to get more done... can we have a pic of the quilt in your hoop on the next post you make maybe??? lol<br />It sounds like you have a busy lineup ahead of you but sometimes a pattern has to step up and get it's own time too I have found... I have quilted for everyone else all year... after this project I will do one I WANT to do :) ha!
