Ain't no sandwich better than a quilty sandwich!

Beautiful day here in Pennsylvania!!  With all this rain recently, a rainless day is well appreciated!  I just finished pinning Crumb Patch and what a pain that was!  I just kept getting wrinkle after wrinkle on the back.  Grrrrr.  I unpinned, fixed it, and repinned.  It will be ready to go after Thursday.  I can't miss the finale of American Idol.  I really need to learn not to watch the preseason stuff.  I just keep watching then.  If I dont watch an episode I could care less what happens!  Oh well.

Anyway, here is some eye candy!  I finished pinning Crumb Patch and may have it done around Memorial Day some time, and I have 5 out of 7 rows completed of the string quilt.  For Crumb Patch, I used Warm and White batting.  I really am starting to like that for machine quilting.  The other batting I like to use is wool batting.  It really has a nice loft and is breathable too.  The Pineapple Blossom quilt shown earlier was quilted with wool batting.

  2. You are soo good at getting things finished!
    American idol we have given up - sorry but once Casey & Pia went we wondered WHO is voting (teeny bops?)James not getting into top 3 - oh come on!
    It seems if you belong to a big church or community you will win - more a popularity contest. Judges say same thing - miss Simon.
