Quilt

So... After my quilting adventure started I got a request for a very huge project, a king quilt. I took it lol I shouldnt have but I am a go getter so here is my progress so far. I decided to stay simple with 9 block pattern with sashing. So here it is in progress..


This one is just the lay out.


This is the first 3 rows. I will post more pics as I get further.

Quilting....

So as you have seen I am attempting to quilt, I have really enjoyed it so far. I have even put together another quilt top this time using the Attic window block. It is race theme for my son. I was curious to know if you ever have the perfect fabric but dont want to cut into it? I feel like if I cut it I might mess it up and it makes me nervous to work with any of my "pretty" fabric. Well thought I would see what you guys thought, heres a pic of the newer quilt not quilted yet.

(Sorry the pic isnt the best, this was with my phone, theres a lot of cars and flames lol)

Woven Rug

I am working on a woven rug. I used to use cardboard boxes and cut them up and use them as looms but my dad built me a loom this past week for me to (re) begin my weaving adventures on. I will post pic's soon. I am extreemly excited to see how it will come out being from a sturdy loom instead of a cardboard box lol. Well If you are looking to weave let me know and I can give you some little tips. I will post pics later for you to see my work in progress and my loom.
