Hi Every One....
I'm very happy to tell you all that the baby girl quilt is done as shown in the pictures below.
At the last minute, I decided to use flannel for borders, batting and backing. In stead of the normal binding with 2.5" strips of fabric, I finished it with a Faux Rag binding. I came up with this technique when I wrote my first book: Soft & Cozy Keepsakes - Faux Rag Quilting, published by The AQS in 2016.
For the boy's baby quilt, it turned out that the baby is now just turned three years old. I decided to make him a bigger quilt so that he and his siblings can snuggle together when they watch TV or something. The top that I made will be given to my dear friend whom I got the fabric from so that she can finish it the way she likes to and donate it to her favorite charity.
I still haven't started the quilting on my denim quilt. We are going on vacation to the Idaho Falls at the end of the month and when we come back, I will start working on it. Right now I'm pulling some fabric for a new project. I don't have any design in mind at this point.
About a month ago I found out that almost all of the comments on my blogs were from No-reply Bloggers. Even the comments from those whom I knew and had interacted with before. I did a little research to find out that, somehow, Blogger changed everyone to a No-Reply Blogger. I came across Carol Swift from justletmequilt.com. In her blogs she discussed, more than once, about No-reply Blogger and has a link to how to fix it.
I also found a blog at xomisse.com where they discussed this issue and have a recommendation on how to fix this problem.
I encourage you, my dear readers, to check these sites. I really appreciate your visit and your comments and would like to be able to communicate back.
Have a great weekend.
Margo
