Freestyling Rulerwork Quilting

I had the pleasure of Beth's company as we got the machines, rulers and quilts out for some ruler work quilting.
I finished off my table runner and quilted my Christmas Tree wallhanging just with the 12" arc ruler. Both are now ready for binding.
After some lunch I prepared a sample placemat for Sunday workshop. So I have another demo piece half stitched.

Then I started quilting the largest quilt to date with rulers. This quilt will be a shop sample to show the customers what you can do with the Westalee rulers.



There is a long way to go, but I have made a start. To get anything finished you need to start.
Until Next Time
Keep Stitching

Christmas in July Blog Hop

Here we are in July and somehow I found myself with two Christmas in July celebrations within days of each other. Saturday was spend with the Jubilee Quilters for their marathon Christmas In July celebrations. Today is our first day of the Christmas in July Blog Hop hosted by Carol from Just let me quilt.
Here is the schedule, so you can follow along.

 I have to admit I was still working on my project on Saturday as I had a restart on my project. The original project which is all cut ready to sew didn't get to the sewing machine. So that project will get put aside to be used for a project later this year. The benefits of celebrating Christmas twice a year.       

So what did I make for this Blog hop. When it comes to Christmas I love Christmas trees and you all know how much I love stars. Now what happens when you mix trees and stars together, you end up with a Christmas Star tree.

With the tree stitched in place and added my borders for my wallhanging. Cut my backing fabric you can just see it sticking out in the picture below, than run into a wall and ran out of time to finish my wall hanging off.



But at least you can see where I am going with this and I will finish it later this week and share with everyone.
Don't forget to visit everyone and enjoy their blog post because I know there is lots of great projects to see.
Until Next Time

Quilting Day

Finally some time at the sewing machine.There is a lot of work to do and I need to get a move along with it.
After some reverse stitching on this project. I was able to re pin it and set to quilting it.
I was aiming for a full day quilting but as always other jobs meant I didn't get to start until 11.30.




The back view is easier to see the pattern.
I have linked this post up with the Free Motion Mavericks, pop over and check out what has been happening lately. It has been a while since I have had something to share here.

Now for the binding.

Until Next Time
Keep Stitching
