Oh my you guys are so talented! I love the ornaments, they look like a lot of work! The dog is adorable. Ivy, did you make yours just like that with all those colors? Very cute!
Well, my last quilt is done. I won't say how long I was up last night finishing it, but it's all done. I finished sewing the binding on this morning,then I made the label and sewed that on. I put one of the fish on the left of the label, and did the lettering on white.
I used my synthropol and washed the beach quilt. Maybe I didn't need to, some red was just on the edges of the white square in the lighthouse. What I discovered was that the white backing and the white pieces in the pattern are transparent a little bit when they are wet. I thought some blue was onto the back, but when it was dry I didn't see any color on it. But anyway, I hand-washed in the bathtub, then I rinsed and spun in the washer twice. It came out very nice, though a little more wrinkled than it started out. Anyway, now I don't need to worry about the dyes.
Still need to take those pictures. Gotta do that tomorrow. I'd have that done but need DH's help with the camera.
