As Long As The Seam Ripper Was Out...
As I was ripping the hand quilting out of my dear jane quilt I remembered another quilt that I had started hand quilting years ago that was tucked away in a tote in the attic. I started this quilt made of thrift store shirts long before Bonnie Hunter made it cool to turn old clothes into quilts again. It was also started when I was a novice quilter...the heavy backing and too thick batting were not ideal for hand quilting, so it's no surprise that I never wanted to finish it. A few more ripped stitches, a different batting, along with my trusty Juki machine and I should have this quilt finished in no time at all!

How wonderful!
It's always interesting when we go back and revisit those first quilts. You will be much happier with it now.
