I’ve been procrastinating long enough. I need to just start! So my OMG for April is to begin the straight line quilting of Precarious. A pattern from Kelly Young’s book Stash Statement! I constructed this quilt in 2018. Then it sat. I finally decided to ask a long arm quilter if she would baste it for me. I don’t have a table big enough and I cannot get to the floor to either pin baste or spray baste!
I will start in the middle. So either the red crumb row in the middle or the middle pink crumb row. My OMG is to get at least on colored row quilted. If it goes well, I may do more. But one for sure!

I look forward to it's finish - you will do great
ReplyDeleteHi Judy, loved your Bold and Bright piece you made. Pairs well with that drink, LOL. Meanwhile, this quilt is amazing. Will so enjoy seeing you quilt it and how great to move things along too. Happy Stitching!
ReplyDeleteIt will be fun to watch your quilting progress on this one.
ReplyDeleteI love the rainbows shining through the gray clouds! I use my cutting table for basting. The top is 38 x 72. I center the backing and clamp bulldog clips at the corners, layer on the batting and the quilt top. When the center is pinned I remove the clamps and slide the quilt sandwich as needed to pin the edges. The weight of the sandwich keeps the back from wrinkling.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great quilt top - I look forward to seeing it at the end of the month!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt top; good luck with your goal.
