A wintry day and a quilt

Now we don’t have Texas type hail, but we had a lot of our little hail today.   In fact, it happened twice, which is the first time I can remember that happening.   You can see the tiny little icicles on both the chair and on the deck behind it.   Just little tiny ice pieces, but it went on and on.   It was enough like winter that I spent some time in the studio, quilting.

This quilt is now quilted.  It still needs trimming, a label and binding.  I am delighted to have it off the machine.  By the end of the week, it should be finished.

I then started this quilt.  The back is sewn and the quilt is mounted.  However, there was a programming error and I ended up removing all the stitching that I put in.  What takes 10 minutes to put in, will take two hours to remove.   It was very helpful that DH was willing to read some of James Harriot as I picked stitches out.   That was an excellent place to quit for the day.
