(Edited to add this note: I noticed that a couple of the comments I received were not showing up under the post. Where were they? I found them posted underneath different pictures. Apparently, with this new gallery option, if you click on a pic, a comment box comes up, too. If you comment there, your comment will be attached underneath the pic, and not the main post. So, if you have left me a comment, and you aren’t seeing it under the post, you might have left it under a picture. )
This is the Garden Twist I started working on last month, for my friend Betty. Betty made this a few years ago, and her mother hand-quilted it, in the ditch, for her. She wanted me to see if I could add some more quilting to it, with my longarm. It went really well, except for the borders. I couldn’t quilt them without puckers, unless she removed the binding, which she opted to do. So, I got it reloaded and finished up today. It turned out pretty good, I think, considering there was quite a bit of fullness here and there, that really had nowhere to go. She is very happy with it, so I am, too!
