One of my favourite things is when I'm given blocks or UFOs from our local MCC Thrift Store. I have a friend and fellow quilter there who sometimes passes things on. The idea is to finish them and send them back. MCC can sell a finish for much more than the sum of the parts.
Date: July 2015
Pattern: Unknown - the top came finished with the exception of the outer border.
Fabric: All from MCC except outer border and binding. They were from my stash.
Lessons Learned: If your tension isn't absolutely perfect when quilting, use a thread in the bobbin that matches the fabric on the front. Yes, I cheat :)
Thoughts: I'm not a Halloween girl, but I'm sure someone will love this.
All the quilting on this was a walking foot at ¼". I used to have a ½" walking foot. I think it met an accidental end. I think I might want to invest in one to make thicker rows.
My quilting group and I are likely to put on a show at the library next spring. I'll show it there and then send it back to MCC for sale.
