WIP, QAL and Judi Madsen class

Lucky me…..tomorrow and Friday I have a longarm quilting class with the amazing Judi Madsen from Green Fairy Quilts.  I signed up for the class at the end of last year so it has been a very long wait.

I just managed to get my rows pieced for the Triangle QAL.  I’m up-to-date and ready to start sewing the rows together next week.  It is amazing how much the rows shrink up when you starting sewing all those 1/4 inch seams.

I haven’t made any progress on our Niece’s wedding gift quilt but that’s ok.  I’ve got almost 6 weeks to finish it and I am hoping for some quilting inspiration from my longarm class.

    This is gorgeous! I love it!

  2. I love your quilt – the colors blue and yellow are just gorgeous together- I made a star quilt for my parents a few years ago using these two colors and it is one of my favorite quilts that I have made. Thanks for sharing your beautiful piece – I am sure it is going to be stunning when you have finished it off. Enjoy your Judi Madsen workshop- I think she is quite an amazing woman who contributes much to quilting and the world at large. I do not long arm but do admire the people who are enjoying quilting with their long arm machines.
    Regards,

  6. Love, love, love your blue, yellow, and white triangles all sewed together. It’s beautiful!

  7. Lovely colours, and I agree that quilts shrink incredibly once they are sewn together.
