Hand quilting challenge with Bonnie Hunter!
Bonnie Hunter issued a challenge to do one hour of hand sewing each day. I guess many of her followers requested something like that so we could all be more productive on our hand projects sitting in the closet.
My grandma died over 2 years ago. When she was a little bit sick (lung cancer) she told me she was bored and needed a hand quilting project to work on. I got right on that! I ordered a small whole cloth throw for her. She complained, but secretly was thrilled (that's how she was) and got to work.
When she passed away, she was about 90% done. So I've had this piece sitting around to finish since then. I am not a hand quilter, but am willing to work on it. So I'm going to get this finished up ASAP and throw it on the back of the sofa.
And I apologize for this photo, it was hard to get any real detail for white on white. I'll work on a better shot when I get it done.
No worries, there is a KING sized quilt I pieced waiting for me to hand quilt when this is done, so this is just a warm up.
Hugs,
