Today I
will be watching my granddaughter Samantha so some of my progress will depend
on how much she sleeps today. When she’s awake she has my full attention!
For today I’ve
decided to try and finish something I started just before Christmas.
Microwaveable Fabric Bowls.

I made a few to test the process and see if I liked
them and then I started another set to give as a gift. The project got waylaid
and so now I’m back working on it. I’m trying to streamline the process and
make it a little easier but so far I haven’t really done much. I did decide to
do a little more quilting on these. The test ones I made just had stitching
from corner to opposite corner. The pattern said that was all that was really
needed but after I washed them I felt that more quilting would be better. The
finished blue one had quilting in both directions and it has been washed. The
rest are just having diagonal quilting as I want to see the
difference, trying to decide how much quilting is needed. You could also free
motion quilt and I might try that on another set. That would be a good way to
practice the technique.

The other
thing I would like to try and work on today is my rag doll. Either her hair or
some clothes to wear.

Hope to be
back later with a photo or two.
Oh yes and
I have to pick an area to order, clean, and organize. That just might be my
cutting table as I need it to work on my Saturday projects.
Until then,
Happy
Moving Forward and Finishing!
