Pictures are here!!!

Ok I hope that this works!!

This is the Quilt on a King Sized bed.  It is basically finished, I have to add two more rows on the sides and then the boarders, backing and binding.  Looks sooo different on a bed.


This is a family heirloom quilting frame.  It was awesome to see a quilt on it again.  

Now for some stats!

Number of individual pieces: 1526 approx
Number of Metes of White Thread: 2000 approx
Number of yards of Silver thread: 500 approx
Number of sewing needles that were broken: 20 (at least!)
Number of sewing machines that were "broke" in the creation of this project:  3  1 burned out and 2 have timing issues.
Number of time my OCC made me change the pattern of the quilt: I stopped counting after 10!

I will be posting more pictures of a finished quilt.  (It is currently traveling so other family members can see it.)  Until then, I will be looking at the quilt tops that I have finished and see what I can do to finish them and get them ready for sale.  I also am going to be making more Spit Bibs to have on hand.  Pictures of them will also be added.  I am also thinking of adding Primitive Embroidery to my the mix as well. 

If anyone can think of things that might sell well, please let me know.  I am always looking for something new and exciting to try out!

Happy crafting!
