D.Q. 4

I had intended to outline quilt the characters in this panel but it just made my wrist too sore. 

I decided to stop at the fox and machine quilt the surrounds of the main panel.  The panel was given to my by another member of my Monday quilting group.  Still I'm sure it will find a good home.  Now, C.Q.5, all pieced, I have used a spray adhesive to put the 3 layers, backing, adding and front together.  Fixed the adhesive with a hot iron but I am going to have to find a sheltered spot to do this next time because it isn't sticking in places, so I pinned these.  I hope to get back to it tomorrow.

Now I'm thinking about C.Q. 6.  I have another 2 cot sized panels that have been given to me so they will be next in line.  This is a good size to practice my machine quilting.

Someone very lucky will be able to cuddle up with Mr Fox. I think it is a good idea to mix hand and machine quilting - and I am sure your wrist agrees!

Yes, much bigger than a cot size, and fabric management becomes a bit of an epic!

But I am mangling the size and learning new skills.
