This Week in Modern Quilt-Along
In time for Halloween, Rose has finished her Once Upon a Time top. Who has the wherewithall to piece all those little X's together? Rose does, that's who. And Blair! Blair is our latest joinee, is also making Once Upon a Time and has all the squares ready to go. Meanwhile, Kathreen is rocking her Unfinished Business.
Mine has finally left the house! It is with Over the Top quilting studio in Austin. These ladies were so nice, they were in tune with the quilting I wanted and took great interest in the FunQuilts aesthetic, PLUS the price was right, so I didn't search further for a DIY opportunity. I got to see their longarm machine up close and personal, though -- it was very impressive and intimidating.
p.s. I find I'm sometimes missing people's MQA progress for various reasons ... posts scrolling of the front page before I catch them ... pictureless entries that I glaze over because of my apparent need for bright shiny colors to attract my attention ... at any rate it's my own fault and nothing personal whatsoever so if you have progress to share, feel free to send an email alert! kmel at excitementmachine dot org.

Thanks for the updates Kim. I think I may be finishing this weekend (OK, now I have to, right?) Also, some folks are having trouble leaving comments at my site, but I'm looking into it (thanks, Amanda).

I'm still in! I've just been disorganized, but the quilt is on the table, in center stage. Really!
I'm on the Redwork pattern, sort of. It's going to take me another couple of weeks, at the rate I'm going --see stephs.com or more specifically:

I'll notify when I make more progress!
Thanks for the inspiration,
Steph
