Cairns Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 I wanted to use up my supply of plaids, stripes, and checks. Ha! It will never happen. I used only my stash for the quilt top. Lots of piano keys that are lost in the stripes. I quilted them to avoid a problem in the borders. The outside border is pieced and I'd used many woven fabrics. I just love my Lucey and plan to get better at using her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairns Posted April 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Lucey is almost one year old. I retired in January, three months ago, and I'm getting more time to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
