My Friday Night Sew-In was more of a Friday Day Sew-In as that was when I had time. I would have done more in the evening but I didn't have any white thread. I'm not sure when I finished my last spool but I hope to get out today to buy some so I can quilt the quilt top I finished last night. Here are some pictures from my Friday, with my toddler making a lot of appearances.
Bright and sunny outside while I finished sashing the blocks for our advent quilt. Pattern is here.
All sashed and ready to be sewn together. Kept the paper near me to make sure I sewed them together in the right order.
Little Guy, Floyd, loved the quilt. I laid it down to make sure everything was sewn together correctly and he hopped right on.
And he soon figured out the pockets.
He needed to hang out with me while I pieced batting. I used 8-10 scraps of batting.
Basted it after Floyd went to bed last night but discovered I had no white thread. Floyd started putting puzzle pieces on it as soon as I laid it down this morning to take a picture. Wait until he finds out that there are going to be treats in each pocket.
