I finished the Jazzy Hands quilt top from Material Obsession 2. Before my machine died, I was able to finish sewing on the borders. I tried to get a picture of the whole top, but its quite large.
I think that this is the first time that I have battled so much with a quilt. Originally, I sewed the stars together, but half way through decided I wanted another layout. After ripping this apart, I added the orange fabric stripes. There may be other ways to do it, but I ended up hand appliqueing them together.
As much as I want to finish this quilt, I know its not going to see any progress this weekend. Because I just received my new best friend!!
Now, I just need a new project so I can get started.
Linking today to Finish it Fridays.
she is shiny and beautiful -- both your quilt and your new BFF. Happy World Sewing Day tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteThis is my first visit (from Finish it up Friday at Crazymomquilts). I just purchased the Material Obsession 2 book specifically for this quilt - but I do love everything in MA2 when it comes down to it. I love your colors and the orange is really sharp addition. Enjoy your new machine, and I will check in to see what other great quilts you pursue in the future.
