What I’m working on: the Rainbow quilt

During September, so far, I’ve gotten a lot done on my Rainbow Scraps quilt. I took it with me to the Arbis quilting course on Tuesdays, and I’ve sewn on it in the city library (waiting to be able to go pick up the kids at daycare) and at home.

The borders are  finished, and that’s great! It feels nice to have gotten all that done, because it means I don’t have to use any pins on it in the future when and if I do any hand-quilting on it.

I really hate and loath getting pricked and scraped by all those darn pins. I hate needles too.

*sigh*

But it is getting easier to sew by hand. I’m getting better. The stitching looks more even, and I "get into the flow" of it. I'm only annoyed at the thing when I run out of sewing thread on the needle.

I've been contemplating a feather pattern for the borders. We'll see how that will go.

I understand that Pinterest is useful for saving tutorials and photos for quilting inspiration, because I use it that way myself, and I'm okay with you doing that too - but PLEASE: "cite when you write". Give the creator some credit, will you? I have nothing against you trying to make something similar, or even selling it, but I'd like to get some credit for being your inspiration. Why? Well, because lots of crafts are passed down from person to person, and it feels nice to be able to say "yes, I taught you how to make that".

What I DON*T LIKE is you flat out stealing my photos and my written text.
