Nov. OMG: Batik Quilting

I always enjoy watching a quilt transform from a flimsy into a quilt right in front of my eyes.
My respect goes out to those of you who quilt for a living, for after spending a better part of yesterday quilting this one with my Breast Cancer Ribbon pantograph, I WAS tired!
Anyhoo...I did get the quilting done and all's that's left it the binding. Phew!
It's the perfect sewing for my busy week ahead.
Here's hoping you have a little bit of sewing on hand to keep you sane as well.
Tomorrow's theme is: MUG RUGS!

    I admire these people too. You're doing a great job on this quilt. Loved the breast cancer ribbon.

    This is why I send mine to a professional (yeah, still haven't got the frame set up). Binding slow time will help make those busy days wind down.

    I just take it a row or two at a time, and then get myself distracted with some other quilty project, and then I'm ready to go again! Your quilt is going to be more gorgeous when you get it finished - awesome!

    what a beauty and lucky you having a machine that quilts patterns presume it is a long arm one.

    I know I would not want to do a bunch of customer quilts, too stressful. However I do quilt tons of my own to sell at the local craft shows and that is such a different feeling. Your quilt is gonna be so gorgeous!

    The quilting looks great. I admire anyone who can quilt. I've not worked up the time or patience to learn that skill just yet.
