I really did not think I would finish quilting all the blocks on the 4 Season's quilt, today, but I came up with a more organized plan for quilting each block and it really sped up my quilting. As I told you, the quilt seemed tremendously large and hard to manipulate on the domestic machine. The SID is not perfect, but then as I stitched I also noticed how many of my points were off. Obviously this is go to be a warm, comfy quilt rather than a show quilt, but that is the kind I love most. In the morning I will SID around the inner border, trim it, and add the binding. I love it when I get to this point. The end is in sight and I like the way it looks.
Tonight we are going to watch a movie and I will finish up the application of the 5 ornaments. The tend to blend into the quilt a little, but I think that will make it more fund for my grandchildren. I have 5 grandchildren, so they will like knowing that I was thinking of them while I worked on this quilt.
I has been another productive and wonderful day!
