Another Busy Week

 The Brightly top is done!

The picture does not do the cheerful colors justice. 

The binding and back are ready to be made.

I took a little side trip this past week for some retail therapy. I have a batik layer cake that I want to use to make another Brightly quilt, I found the perfect background fabric at one shop. Sorry no picture.

At another shop, I purchased five yards of a great teal fabric that I have already made into a back for the 12 patch quilt top. Sorry no picture.

I do have a picture of an Angela Walters quilting panel I purchased.

One of the shops I went to takes consignment items and this set was one. I've been thinking about purchasing one of Angela's panels for a while, this was a much more economical option. If it works out I may purchase the panel that goes with her ruler tutorials.

At the third shop I purchased a few panels that were in the clearance section.

These will be fun to put together and quilt.

Since I didn't get to quilt the 12 patch I decided to give quilting something small on the long arm another chance.

Still not a fan but they turned out a little bit better.

Ready for binding.

And here's the runner I showed last week...still not finished.

Stephanie made the star blocks, and I used them to make the runner. For the most part I do like the quilting.

I made great progress on the A-Mazing quilt top.

I'm halfway done.

What's next on the long arm?

OMG that is an empty machine and a clean room! The lights and rear handles I ordered will be delivered and installed Wednesday. Since I'm also getting a lesson on pantographs I'm not loading anything new. Well...maybe a practice quilt sandwich Tuesday evening.
