WIP Wednesday

Unfortunately, my sewing machine is back in the shop for more servicing.  I am not a happy quilter.  So I dont have much sewing to show this week. I seriously need a back-up machine for these kinds of situations. Must stop buying fabric and save for new machine.. I didnt get my sample done in time for the June FreeMotion Challenge.  Oh well, I can still do it whenever I get the chance.    I did manage to get the borders sewn on my Scrappy Star table
 runner that I won on Holly's blog.
 

   I will be handquilting it.  Since it is handpieced, I found it was begging to be handquilted.  I showed it off yesterday at the quilt shop and everyone was impressed that it was handpieced.   It is wonderful.  I love it so much.  While I was  dropping my machine off  at the quilt shop, It's Sew Time, a  delivery of new fabrics arrived and was opened for all to have a look.  Now, that was fun!  It was just like Christmas morning.  I didnt buy anything!  

On Sunday, I made a trip to Mahone Bay and of course, had to stop by and visit all the fabric at Suttles and Seawinds.  It was amazing.  They have the most gorgeous fabrics and also their quilts for sale are spectacular.  I added to my Kaffe collection.  The lobster and fish fat quarter pack is intended to make a lap quilt for my father.

 

        I am linking up with The Needle and Thread Network,so stop by and see what everyone has been working on.
