FMQing away!

I started the freemotion quilting on the quilt I spraybasted the other day.  You can read about it here.
The quilt top belongs to my QuiltySister.  She was involved in a block swap at her quilt group when she lived in Kuala Lumpur.  Her swap partner lived in British Columbia, I think.  She received 5 blocks and didn't know what to do with them so when she visited me from  Doha, Qatar this  summer, she and I worked on getting the blocks set into an arrangement for a small quilt.  And, guess who got to do the quilting.  I want to get this done and off my list asap.
because my nephew, her middle son, will be visiting me from Saint John, NB, for Thanksgiving and I am hoping to  he will be able to take it to her when he goes to Doha for Christmas. This quilt gets around!


I also want to remind you that if you haven't entered my giveaway already, you can go here to check it out.  I will be choosing a winner later today.



Hope you have time to do something quilty today!

  8. What lovely fmq!!! Great job :) It's tough finishing up a quilt on deadline, but sometimes that is the only thing that gets me really fired up to finish something. I also LOVE your little Header Bee - is that a postcard? Too, too cute!!!
