I have begun quilting my customer's Scrappy Time quilt, and have made it to the halfway point. It measures 96" x 112". I'm using light turquoise 40-weight Omni poly-wrapped poly thread on top, and cobalt blue 40-weight Signature cotton thread in the bobbin. It sure takes a lot more bobbins when I'm using 40-weight thread, as opposed to the usual 60-weight Bottom Line thread! -- but this thread matched perfectly, and that's what's important. The pantograph is called 'A Little Bit This' by Barbara Becker.
At ten after five this afternoon, the sun dimmed a bit and I glanced out the window. Over the hill to the northwest, a raincloud was spilling its moisture all over the valley. I trotted downstairs with my camera, walked out on the porch to take pictures -- and Tiger trottity-trotted right along with me. If I went down the porch steps, Tiger came down them after me. If I went back up those steps, Tiger clambered up the steps after me, even though it's something of a struggle for the poor ol' arthritic kitty. I gave him a treat for his lovableness.
