Changes

Changed the purple to a darker color. It looks less "Easter egg" now.


Increased the size of the lettering and put into the corner. I like them much better now.

Embroidering

The photo is dark. Not the best lights in this house.


Nice to have the embroidery machine set up once again.

Drum Roll

The quilt top is finished. 2534 little pieces.



Now I have to make a decision. Hand quilt or turn it over to a long arm quilter. Need a find a long arm quilter and get a quite by the end of the week.

It actually looks pretty nice on my new bed. Hmmm. I could always just give cash as a wedding gift.

Half

Half of the double wedding ring quilt is sewn together.


Feels good to finally make some significant progress.


I still need to sew all the connecting corners. But I am seeing and end in sight.

It looks huge. I laid it out on my queen bed and it is just right.

Ready, Set, Sew...

Almost unpacked. Things are out of boxes but not organized in the slightest.


Sewing machine us plugged in and threaded. Got to make some progress on the double wedding ring quilt.

Going to talk to local quilt shop this weekend. Need to know what my deadline is to turn it over to a long arm quilter to get back by the wedding.

Ready, set, sew....

62

62 boxes still in the garage.


This is only a portion of them. Not sure how I am going to fit it all in this tiny house.

Looks Like

I am a novice when it comes to Iowa weather. But this sure looks like more than an inch of snow.


I put Mason to work shoveling the driveway. One of my new neighbors was nice enough to use his snow blower on the front sidewalk.


Still living out of the hotel until my belongings arrive. Crossing fingers that should be tomorrow (Tuesday).

Another Week

It will be another week before I see my belongings again.


I am ready for this move to be over.
