I started this quilt in the winter of 2013/14. It is hand pieced because I like handwork. I finally quilted it on Phoebe a month or two ago. I've been enjoying looking at it, but finally wanted it done. Well, here it is...
I've just been calling it "Hexi Quilt".
62" x 60"
I love it!! it is so bright and cheery. Love walking into a room and seeing it, it is so cheery! I washed it and hung it on the line. It is a perfect day for line drying a quilt, about 75 degrees and very dry still. Maybe I'll call this my "Oh, Happy Day" quilt.😊
I'm also moving my studio into the cellar. We installed a heating system down there a couple of weeks ago so that it will heat or dehumidify the area. I love working down there, so I'm very happy. I'm pretty tired from moving stuff, but I'm almost there,
Also bought a new frame for Phoebe. It is basically the same thing, but I'll be able to adjust the height in years to come if I cannot work standing at it. It's also a little longer so I can do a queen size quilt if I should choose to do so. This frame also has a hard surface for quilting with pantographs. Not really interested in using them, but I thought it would be convenient when pinning a quilt on the frame. I haven't set it up yet. This is not a finished space, but I don't care. So looking forward to this summer down there.
Still counting my blessings,
