Sashing for 'Heaven & Nature Sing'

 I'm glad to see that the cream-on-cream sashing is making the 3D shadowing show up as intended.  I should probably put 3D shadow strips on the Tilted Pine Tree blocks, too.  Debating...

Pine Trees, Tilted

 All the little Pine Trees are now tilted.  Now to start putting them together with the wildlife-scenic blocks, and decide if there are enough Pine Tree blocks.

Vintage Toddlers Quilt Done

My thread arrived, and the Vintage Toddlers quilt is done.  It measures 47½" x 47½".  I used 50-wt. cream So Fine thread on top, and 60-wt. cream Bottom Line thread in the bobbin.  The batting is soft, thin cotton.  My friend cut the squares from an allover print, and her teenage daughter and her two friends put this quilt together for the friends' new baby brother.






And Then I Ran Out of Thread...

 I was allllllllllmost done quilting, oh so very, very close --- and then I ran out of thread.  Another cone of thread is supposed to arrive tomorrow.

Vintage Toddlers Quilt

 Today I've been doing light custom quilting on a baby quilt three young teenagers, two of whom are sisters, have put together, with a bit of help from one girl's mother.  They made the quilt for the sisters' new baby brother.
