Top Row of Crinoline Ladies

 I've finished the row where three of the Crinoline Ladies are.  I'll attach their vintage-hanky skirts after quilting is complete.

More Quilting on the Crinoline Ladies Quilt

 





Quilting Crinoline Ladies Quilt

 I'm quilting away on the Crinoline Ladies quilt.  Some of those squares aren't quite square.  Maybe I'll fix them... maybe I won't.  If I'm no more ambitious tomorrow than I am tonight, I won't.  😏

Row Two, Crinoline Ladies

 Another row of 'I Wish You Well' blocks is on the Crinoline Ladies quilt.  I'm ready to start working on the central panel.

Top Row of the Crinoline Ladies Quilt

I've been working on the top row of blocks for the Crinoline Ladies quilt today. Here's what I have done so far. I don't have any purple, lavender, or lilac quilting thread! My local quilt shop has spools (as opposed to the much larger cones) of long-staple thread that works well in my Avanté. I don't need a whole lot of each color, so maybe I'll stop in tomorrow and see what she has.
