      Nice work Annis.

        Thanks, everyone. Most of the time I machine sew the binding to the front and hand sew it to the back. I figure with all of the time saved on the quick piecing methods I use and the computerized quilting, I can take a little time and do some hand sewing on the binding.

          Achieved so far this year - finally got WotRott basted and will be able to start quilting :woohoo: (once I've cleared off the big sewing table inch: )

          Made a Bonnie Hunter Weed Whacker quilt and finished it! hmy:

          Feeling very chuffed with myself for this one. B)

              Lovely work Annis. I really like that quilting design. Having tried a few long-arm machines at a couple of shows I know that it's not that easy to do it well so I am very impressed.

              Rosemary, I love that weed-whacker block and keep thinking about doing one myself. Well done.

                  Rita, it would make a great leaders and enders project, once you decide on the size of your strips.

                      I would guess that the finished block is 3"?

                        Welll..... you could use it for a mug rug :whistle:

                        Approx. 8 3/4" square. Each strip was 3/16 wide finished (except when I went a bit wonky) It was much easier to sew on my treadle than on my modern Janome, because of the needle plate and teeth are closer together.

                          Holy moly Rosemary, you are bonkers! It's amazing. Are you going to enter it at FoQ in the miniatures section this year? You should.

                            I might well do at that. Although I still love the pattern and am contemplating doing another one to see if I can get it a bit more accurate next time. If I do, I will probably enter that one instead. I admit to a bit of rushing with this one, just to see if I could.

                              But are the imperfections visible to the naked eye? :blink: Did you starch the bejayziz out of the fabric first?

                                Beautiful, Rosemary! And incredible!! I have a whole list of Bonnie Hunter quilts I want to make, but I'm going to stick with BIG!
