My Creative Space - Sunny Works in Progress

DSCF1171

I'm enjoying sitting at the machine with the window open in this beautiful weather. I decided that it was high time I pulled these two UFOs (unfinished objects) out and turn them into WIPs (work in progress). They are from when I went to a Don't Look Now workshop.

Once a UFO is being worked on again, it is no longer a UFO, it is a WIP.

Before I do any quilting, I always check my tension and do a little practice on my practise sandwich.

I think I may need to make a new practice sandwich soon, as this one is getting a little full.

Does anyone else over-lap their practices like this?

  2. I tend to practise on something that can be made into a pot-holder... but I like the look of your overlappy practice bits. I'd want to turn them into something, too.

  3. That is so beautiful Carmel!
    I tend to use a scrappy bit and toss it away. I much prefer your method!

  5. It looks great Carmel! I think I might make a larger practive sandwich - might be fun to watch as my FMQ improves!
