Tee Shirt Quilt and Embroidery Adventure

Whew!

Putting a new quilt on the long arm is a TON of work.  It took Terry and I together over an hour.  She is finishing her 2nd pass of the pantograph she chose for this quilt she is making for a friend of hers.  I snapped a quick pic for you:


Her friend will be so excited when she sees this!  Terry says she hopes she never has to make another one.  She doesn't like doing the tee shirts.

And I am so pleased with what I accomplished today.

I decided that I would do some embroidery on this new gray top I made that I didn't really like UNTIL NOW!

Check this out:


 The design on the shoulder wraps around to the back.

Gotta go fix dinner.

Be back soon.

Hugs, Joy

    1. The design is from www.emblibrary.com. It is #H7489. Delicate Daylillies Border 1. I have the two other designs that go with it. Embroidery Library has designs for $1.00 sales, and I buy a lot of designs at those times.

  6. I just happened upon your blog by fluke and am enjoying reading your sewing, quilting, jewelry making comments. That is a darned cute grey knit outfit with the embroidered flower. Very cute indeed.
