Home & Scrap Assassins

Good morning!!

I'm back home & getting settled- busy making lists & prioritizing all those things that need to be done.  It  helps considerably that the mornings now in Nebraska are cool (40s)- that's the perfect energizer for me!  Yes, I do realize I'm one of the few people in the world who gain energy from cold weather.  Give me a snowy day & look out- who knows what will be done by the end of the day!

Anyways, as much as I loved being with my family & all my nephews, it's also wonderful being home & back in a routine.  Getting my chores done this morning & planning on longarming this afternoon.

Here's a customer's quilt I completed over the summer.  It's called the Scrap Assassin Returns.  My friend is working on adding buttons to the centers of the flowers now.  I can't wait to see it when she finishes!  I love the 1930s reproduction fabrics she chose for this quilt- I think I remember her saying she collected fat quarters for one year before started this project!
One thing I have to say about this quilt- it is HUGE!  It's like 110something x 80something.  Craziness!

Details about the quilting:
- Used white thread
- Very open pattern per customer's request
- Custom block quilting- so even though it looks like an overall repeating pattern, every flower was done individually.
Hope you enjoyed the quilt!  Have a great day!
