Friday Progress

Katie Jump Rope Quilt  (aka, Ethan's Design)  is almost done.   It's a very easy quilt, and is baby size, but it's been a busy week.  Life comes first, and then quilting.  bah!
I'm experimenting with several things in this quilt - making up my own blocks, spray basting, a different kind of batting (thin poly blend I had from my stash) and machine sewing the binding.

I'll let you know what happens.

  6. Yep...it is looking good! I don't have any Denise Schmidt fabric, but Katie Jump Rope has been calling my name. It looks so good in your quilt!

    Do you like the spray basting? I have never used it.

    I think it's awesome when mom's take their child's drawings and create something that will last a lifetime with it - one day...*sigh*
