SEW Scrappy Tumbler

Look at what is going on the mid-arm today….IMG_2591

I got the Pfaff back from the Spa yesterday…and need something to practice on before I tackle the special secret ‘stuff’!  If she is going to misbehave, let it be on something that I am going to keep.

I have the backing all ready to roll and need to give this top one more press before I pin it onto the frame!

This is the pattern that I modelled this quilt after…The magazine, ‘Sew Scrappy’ by Better Home and Gardens came out about 3 or 4 years ago.  I loved it then and I love it now! 

Sew Scrappy

There were lots of great quilts in this issue but this one is still my favourite!  There is nothing like a scrap happy quilt!!

My fingers are crossed that a week at the Spa did the trick!! 

Have a Super Stitching Saturday and thanks for stopping by!~P
