This fleece quilt is for a friend who requested this color. I bought the fleece at JoAnn's last month on clearance. 2-1/4 yards top and backing. The fringe is 4" inches long.
I have another fleece quilt ready to load on the long arm today. It's a fleece panel of an Iris---or is that an Orchid? Hmmm---- Unusual & Fun!
I really like quilting on these watercolor type free form designs. It's interesting outlining the leaves, flower petals and embellishing the various elements with quilting. Stay tuned!
I ordered the new Electric Quilt 7 upgrade today! Not that I really play much with EQ6 ---but the new 7 version looks way more interesting. Sort of verging on a photo editing program don't you think? I feel that's probably the real appeal to me. Plus I find it's cheaper to buy upgrades each time they come out than to buy a totally new EQ program. So over the years since version 4 this is what I've been doing. I wonder if this is the year I actually sit down and learn this program "well"? Maybe---as I'm really into "learning stuff" lately. More than quilting it seems. And there is the other problem. Which should I do today? Quilt or study quilting, or read, or watch a quilting lesson on the computer, or draw, or piece a block---the list goes on, but you get the picture. Aaaaaagh! To many choices--to little time!
