Sewing with Millie~♥

I am making good time with our Tea Cozy quilt~the fabric colors are all so pretty that the piecing is a treat~

I also love to iron out the seams and steam everything nice and smooth with all the seams going opposite of one another so all the teacups will stack up as I sew the long strips together.

 This only happens in quilting you know....Life doesn't stack up like that~life is more like a crazy quilt~

I could not have found a better way to spend my recovery time than on this project~I can feel that this old knee is getting better and better with each day....


 pretty rows....all ironed....ready to go~

pinned together so I don't forget the order~

more pretty selvage fabric...I will make something special for all who participate in the Relay~

  2. Tag says, "Hi, Millie!" Your quilt is looking beautiful! There's nothing quite like a new machine, either, Eileen. Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend and have a fabulous new week!
