Yesterday I stayed in my pjs ALL day! I was stitching on my second Vintage Valentine block. I finished it last night. Besides needleturning with the freezer paper underneath I also glued some of the pieces together before adding them to the background. Another time saver! I started on the next block and got two pieces appliqued before I went to bed. This quilt is turning out very pretty. I'm enjoying working on it despite the tiny pieces.
Edit: I hate our new digital camera. Most of my pictures turn out blurry! I'll try to take this one over and see if I do better...
Allthough it is blurry I can see it will look nice in the end.
ReplyDeleteDo you have a "macro" button or setting? You are likely too close for the camera at it's current setting. If I turn the macro ON, I can get up to 7" from my object without blurriness.
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty tho!!
How pretty and feminine.
ReplyDeleteIt really is turning out to be lovely. Great work.......
ReplyDeleteTry lots of the different settings on your camera. I know I have some settings where the flash is delayed and I think are really made for a tripod as pictures on that setting are always blurry. On other settings I do just fine. Experiment - after all, all you need to is delete the bad ones. Digital is so cool!
ReplyDeleteLovely! Your second block from Vintage Valentine is beautiful. I am making the same quilt as a wedding gift to my son and his fiancee! I just have to finish the flower petals on this block and then begin #3! I'll look forward to seeing more of your progress
ReplyDeleteBlurry or not I think it is lovely. Thank you for sharing your site
