Thanks to too many conference calls I got another quilt bound this week. Finally something good coming out of what are normally boring conference calls.
This small quilt is 38.5″ x 43.5″ dog themed quilt is my latest UFO (quilt started before 2020) to be finished. I have one more quilted that must have binding applied before next week’s conference call cycle starts so I have more hand sewing to do. Quilting really does help with one’s sanity, and working from home means you can multi-task with things you enjoy! And what the boss doesn’t know….
Lessons from this quilt:
- Curvy line quilting in the border is more forgiving of the ability to keep a perfect straight line. Enough of straight line border quilting – time to try something different.
- You can make a cute quilt totally out of your comfort zone colours (I’m not a brown person).
- Random is possible even with larger pieces.
Ha, I love the boring conference calls resulting in binding of quilts! Wish I could do that when I’m doing Zoom yoga these days… thought yoga is anything but boring! Lovely to ‘meet’ you Yvonne, and lovely again to have seen my/your beautiful Smooches quilt.
I have heard a few guitar sounds coming from Hubster’s “home” office now and then, usually while he is on a conference call. LOL. Thanks for linking up to TGIFF this week! Such a cute quilt, and brown really is a misunderstood color. Hahahaha!
Love this quilt! and too funny – I never thought about binding during conference calls – my husband is taking a lot of calls… wonder if I could teach him to bind???
