It's been a great Labor Day weekend. On Friday afternoon I picked up a bag of "Linus" quilts. This is a group of quilters that make quilts for kids and adults that may be having some challenges in life and are given a quilt for comfort. I picked up 6 quilt tops and got busy learning about my new machine and it's capabilities.
One thing I love about quilting, its that each quilt top has it's own story. There is no perfectly square block and each beautiful quilt top lets you use your imagination on what pattern to use that will compliment the quilt top. I've had a grand weekend and have finished 4 of the 6 quilt tops. One quilt top, I quilted by with me driving the long arm machine and the other three I used Quilt Path to create patterns and the allowed Quilt Path to drive the machine. I have ideas for the last two quilt tops and hope to finish them up in the next few days.
I was also able to go the the UT Longhorn versus Notre Dame game on Saturday. Overall a great Labor Day weekend!
