    Default What I've been working on

    This is the quilt that I quilted the first 3 rows and realized my tension was off. I had to rip out all three rows which the first row was meandering and then I couldn't get the quilt to go back on the frame right. After a little bit of praying and a little bit of swearing, I was able to get it back on the frame and finish it! This is for a co-worker who commissioned me to make it for her. I quilted it with my Voyager 17 and used Hobbs polydown batting. Thanks for all the suggestions on how to get it back on the frame!

    So glad you were able to get it back on the frame and so nicely done. I'll bet that was so frustrating for you.
