Infinite Variety

Here I am at my yearly sewathon working on my commemorative red and white quilt.  Pretty exciting sewing...... NOT!

 Here I am at my computer putzing around and I told Bonnie & Randy they weren't doing a very good job of keeping me focused.
I have 19 blocks made...only 80 to go!!

Quilt show tomorrow!! Woo Hoo!!

    Those look like awfully long stripes you are sewing together. Tricky to keep them straight.
    I cannot wait to see what you are seeing!

    Bonnie and Randy get a great big FAIL, don't they!

    Keep at it, Lori, you'll get there. I know you have been in marathons before :)

    I've been watching and waiting for attendees of the NY red/white quilt show to make red/white quilts. I haven't seen very many so far.
    Yours is looking very precise. You must be focusing more than you're letting on.

    Two colour quilt sewing is so boring I know, But it will be worth it when it's finished. Can't wait to see it done !

    They may not be keeping you focused but I bet you are having a blast. Wish I were there. Hugs

    That's the drawback to a two color quilt (even more so when it is two fabric also), they are b-o-r-i-n-g to stitch. The end result is usually pretty magnificent but you must be super good dealing with delayed gratification. I am not. I have two red and white projects started after the show and abandoned already. I know you can do better than me!

    Great start to this project! I'm going to make the R&W my next new start. I have to finish my pink/white one first, blocks made, now to piece the top! Hope you have a great day at the show. My friend is going, I called her yesterday and told her to pick me up on the way heheh. I threatened that next year I'm going to make the trek!

    Sewing with friends is the best time to do boring sewing. Chatting and laughing - time goes by fast. I look forward to seeing what you're making!!
