Plodding Along on Sewing

October 4, 2016 by Rhonda R

This morning I woke up early and finished piecing the Puss in the Corner baby quilt top.  I’m looking forward to getting home and finishing this sweet little quilt.

I also can’t wait to press it with my steam iron.  My mom doesn’t use water in her iron and it seems like I just can’t get it pressed well.  It could also be that I was trying to press on a little tiny pressing pad.  I’m a big fan of steam, though and really like how nice and flat my quilts look after I steam them into submission!

Jim and I are winding down our visit to Kansas City. The weather has been beautiful so we decided to go down to the Plaza for dinner to take advantage of it.  We sat outside and Jim snapped this picture of my mom and me.

It’s always sad to leave, but we’ve had a nice visit and now that Jim is retired we can come more often.

    You’re right, your quilt is so sweet! By setting it on point, you gave it an extra “wow” factor! Lovely!

    The quilt is sweet but the pic of you and your mom is even sweeter.
