A New Focus

Traveling by car to British Columbia has offered some extra quilting time. I know that most people wouldn't even attempt this because of the possibility of motion sickness and the small confined space. I decided to take my "House Hunting " quilt along and my small lap frame so I could put the time to good use. During the 6 day drive I managed to get the center of the quilt hand quilted. Before leaving home I heavily basted the quilt to make sure there was no shifting of fabric. I am happy with how this turned out. We'll see just how much that I can accomplish on the trip back home.

  

While in B.C. I helped Christine with the quilt she is making for herself. We also made burp cloths, swaddling blankets, and cloth wipes.

Most of my time was taken up with Charlotte as well as helping Christine and Philip with meals and chores.
