PROUD MARY HAS ARRIVED

 
 
 
Can believe the excitement when I saw the truck backing up the drive ......    Yippee!!

 
This is Rick the young man that is very polite doesn't
 talk much while he is working and setting up.     Me I just keep on chatting away......    He apologize for not talking while he's working.     I can see why......     I finally left him alone to finish the set up.
 
Working on the light bar....

 
He really has a system...

 
He kept hogging the machine.......    lololol   He was making sure the tension and stitches were perfect.     So much knowledge about the Innova!

 
Isn't she pretty????    She gonna get a tattoo!

 
It has been a year since I have quilted.....     WOW!!  this sure feels  goooood.     Purrs just like a kitten!!

 
Love the LED light.....    I will be able to my stitches when I working on a white whole cloth.

 
There she is allllll  nice and pretty!
 
First up will be Suzan's  challenge quilt,   then the quilt for The Art of  Collaboration  May 2.
 
Tomorrow I will not be watching the super bowl,    I will be quilting with the Super Innova!

Canoes On The Chippewa



 
Canoes on the Chippewa
Gave the quilt that  because of the block and we lived by the Chippewa River in Northern Wisconsin 
 
 
Paper pieced this two years ago for a quilt challenge MQS in Kansas but it never got there...
 
 
The bread and butter design for the quilt.....     I really need to go in and tweak this design,    It's like what was I thing.....      Now after Proud Mary is here,   (thursday)   It will get quilted.    I started quilting  the  border and will need to rip out all the stitches and start over.

POPPY QUILT

 
Got a phone call from Uniquely Yours wanting a panel quilted for a show in Texas Feb 3,     eeeeeegads.......    told her that I didn't have my INNOVA yet.     But the good person I am,  I made a phone call to my SIL to borrow her machine for a couple of days.    It was kind of fun but I really want to do some serious quilting.       (like custom)     This was good practice to get back in the hang of it after a year of not having a longarm. 
 
 
 
little thread play with the poppies

 
very simple background fill to keep the price down for  display quilt for kits
