This is how I record the spacing on my background fill. I take a picture with something to use for reference. In this case, it's one finger width. If I can't get back to quilting for a day or two (like, maybe Kevin Costner will whisk me off to Tahiti???) I will be consistent with the density.
The large flowers in the border needed some fill but I couldn't get too close to the yo-yo centre.
Flowers & leaves fill the unusual space between the star blocks.
We had a wonderful long weekend at Margaret's. Except for the friggin' weather. What's with SNOW in the middle of April? We spent Saturday at the Kawartha Quilt Show. As you can see, I didn't want to go outside.
I got my Goose in the Pond blocks together. Pretty. But they were kinda like wire hangers - I'm sure they kept multiplying. Every time I thought I had them all done, there was another one or two to be stitched.
Sunday after lunch we're getting ready to head for home. In the SNOW. I kept myself awake with half a box of Girl Guide cookies on the drive home. It's a good thing they only sell those things in the spring.
I guess we missed each other at the Kawartha Quilt Show. It was cold inside too. We had to take a break in between and had lunch to warm up.
