A Day of Sewing

I haven't had a good day of sewing in a while.

Between medical and life, I just barely get to sew.

I took a class to make a cover for my long arm. 

I bought pre-quilted fabric because I was not sure I'd get it quilted, but they didn't have enough of one color.

So, I bought two colors and I'm glad I did.

I ended up getting the long arm cover out of the 3.36 yards of fabric.

  

Here it is over two chairs in class and then on my machine.

I completed it before noon and the class went to 3:00, so I decided to make one for the embroidery machine.

I used the other 2.5 yards of fabric for my embroidery cover.

I did have to piece the back, but it is still great.

This is my embroidery cover.

I might need to adjust the bottom in the front of the machine because it is shorter.

Today I had nothing planned.

DD needs a baby quilt for a co-worker and I had this panel and the stars from another Eric Carle quilt.

So, off I went to put this together with what I had on hand.

I have it trimmed and ready to be bound.

We have doctor's appointments tomorrow, so who knows, maybe I'll even finish the binding.

It felt good to sew.
