The Countdown Begins

Boy, yesterday was a good day to quilt. For those of you who don't know me, I do professional longarm quilting for a living. In the summer it is a very tough job since my quilting room is not air conditioned. At times I feel like I'm quilting in an oven.

Well, yesterday was only a touch warm so I was able to keep busy non-stop. I started about 7 a.m. and put in twelve hours quilting three medium sized wall hangings one after the other. Although it was worth it, I put in a very loooong day.

I am slightly backed up at the moment trying to get quilts done for a local quilt show coming up next month. So, I will be putting in long hours to make sure they all get done.

The picture below is one of the quilts I quilted. It actually won ribbons for the quilting at a local quilt show. You can read more about it on my home page. Or, visit the sample gallery to see more of my work.



I gotta get busy now. I still have one more wall hanging for this customer to finish up her order so I better get to work.

Til next time, Happy Quilting!
