    Last Quilt for Awhile

    photo.jpg
    This is the last quilt I picked up from the LAQ this week. It's a queen size quilt I made using my first jelly roll I ever purchased, Robert Kaufman 1930's Bella Solid. I found the pattern on modabakeshop.com and it's called 30's Barn Raising.

    My LAQ lady only has a couple of stitch designs. I'm okay with that since her price is right. There are some quilts I would like to have something stitched differently. When I make those I will pay the higher price and have someone else quilt them.

    I'm pretty much caught up right now so I am going to try to stay away from the sewing machine (maybe just sew at night after hubby goes to bed). We have two trips scheduled for July and will be gone 3 weeks of the month. I need to get caught up with other things at home.

        Life is like a party. You invite a lot of people; some go, some join you, some laugh with you, some didn’t come. But in the end, after the fun, there would be a few who would clean up the mess with you. And most of the time, those were the uninvited ones.

            Procrastinate. It frees up time to quilt!

                    Oh, Robin, how beautiful!! LOVE the pattern, and your LAQ lady did a great job.

                    You're allowed to take a break from your machine, but we still want to hear from you!! Hope you don't take a break from US.

                    Blessings, ~ Sally \0/

                      Love that quilt. In fact, it's on my "To Do" list.

                          What a pretty quilt! And even if it is one of 2 quilting designs, it is striking! Have a good time on your trips!

                            I love the look of your quilt, it has got my brain working !
                            Love the simplicity of it.
                            Would love to make it for DS and DIL.
                            Please, please what is the name of the pattern?
