What a great start to 2019 for your Linus donations. The quilting is great, especially on that beautiful bargello quilt. I am so impressed with your skills and hope you continue to enjoy the new quilting system.

Oh my gosh I tested that eons ago! I completely forgot about it. It was fun to do.,
I love seeing your practice on the new machine. It’s so much fun to do isn’t it? The “practice” looks really good.
I had some pretty wonky tension when I first got my machine. I always test on the side or on a scrap set up I have with each new bobbin. It takes a bit to get a feel for the tension on any given machine. Charity quilts are perfect for playing around with whatever skills you want to improve on.
I sent my jelly roll yesterday. Hopefully you have to by Thursday
Happy Crafting

Some of the orphan blocks in my bin are a bit “vintage!”
Yeah, I felt like a complete doof when I realized the tension wasn’t right on the back of my first practice piece because it looked SO GOOD on the front. The part I ended up keeping was the least dense and interesting quilting I did on that piece, but it had the best tension! I’m just grateful that didn’t happen on a quilt top. I’ve got a drawer of scrap squares now so I can test on the side before I start. 🙂
Yay for jelly rolls! It feels a bit like Christmas again, waiting to see what everyone shares!

I already had a sneak peek but I love getting to “walk past the quilts” and look at them in your video 🙂 Postage rates go up in a week or so, I guess I better get a move on with my jelly rolls!

Oh, yay, I’m so glad you enjoyed that! I almost didn’t keep it in. That was me trying to decide on an angle to try to get them all and just playing as I walked back and forth!
Yay, jelly rolls! I started putting together a quilt label to share with everyone and it’s really fun so far. 😀
