Sew Simple

 The blankety blank welcome quilt is done. Almost.  When I threw it in the wash a few seams popped so I've got to go applique some patches on it to hide the frayed edges while I keep repeating "done is better than perfect". I hate 1/4 inch seams. Hate. Them. Never again. It's 1/2 inch or nothing for me.

 I am happy about the back. That sticky batting is just what you need for machine quilting. Not a pucker in sight. Hallelujah.

 I am continuing my free motion adventure with some panels from clearance quilting collections. Thanks for the idea Cindy. It's just what I need.  I got them for about $2 a piece so ruining them is not a problem-though that red and white folksy one is awfully pretty.

While I was out scouting for panels I found this sewing themed material on clearance also.

 It is going to be this apron. It better be sew simple. I am not in the mood for drama. If this heat waves doesn't break soon I surely will go mad. Cabin fever has set in with a vengeance. Even being cranky isn't helping.

I also need to get back to work on what I hope isn't to become a permanent fixture of the dining room table. It's pretty but it needs to be done, done, done.
