Be warned, quilting has kept me entertained in Ithaca, so there will probably be more posts about it in the future =).
I can't believe I only have one more quilting class left! I'm going to miss going once a week. Here's the project I've been working on in class. We've added the borders and basted it (pinned the three layers together).
To keep me busy during the week, I've been practicing the different skills I've learned with scrap fabric. Here's a pattern made out half square triangles.
Joann's had a great sale last week so I got some more fat quarters for future projects.
I think I'm addicted! I'm grateful to have a new hobby, and it has made being in Ithaca more bearable. The neat part too is that you can find all kinds of free patterns online. It's amazing how many people share their crafty skills; I've bookmarked all kinds of blogs and websites for future use. If money grew on trees my living room would be covered in fabric!
