I've finished the quilt.......
Just kidding. This is a quilt that was made for me when I was in Jr. High or grade school. Braden has been using it on his bed. For his birthday, we decorated his room in a cowboy theme (project before and after pictures coming soon - as soon as the after is done!!!) I've been wanting to back this quilt for years and I finally got it done.
I tied the back on and prepared the edges for sewing - then it was a piece of cake from there (at least I told Matt it was going to be.)
Feeling so proud of the progress I was making - I decided to get out the camera and document it.
Then this happened.....
Yes that is a broken needle. I fixed that problem only to discover the stitches on the back of the quilt looked like this...
Needless to say after 3 broken needles and using the seam ripper on the same section of quilt 2 times, I finally had the project complete. I'd love to tell you I had two helpers during this process and that is why I had so much trouble, but they were at Bee Bees. I just had that much trouble. We'll see how the whole quilt process goes.
