Yikes..... I do not like the basting.It's my least favorite process of making a quilt, I shall say.
What's your least favorite process?

I would agree mine would be basting. I have a large hand quilting frame so now I do not have to baste. :) I still baste really small project if I want to use a hoop. That quilt tops looks great. There is so much in it. Just think once it is basted it will never have to be basted again.
Totally agree... and the larger the quilt is.. the worse it is!!!!!
But you will have a gorgeoue quilt once finished.. :o)
Have a great weekend!!!
We all HATE basting...it's tedious, but very necessary. LOVE that book...it looks like it has scrumtious applique. Love applique. Hope your kids are doing better. I wasn't in the military, but my husband traveled a LOT when they were little. I remember like yesterday!
Basting is not my favorite part. But that quilt looks mighty good!
Basting is a tedious job allright and it can be bad for the back too. My last large quilt I got a mchine quilter to do but it's too costly now. Your quilt is looking wonderful.
Basting is my least fave, too, because I have such a hard time finding a spot that's big enough. That's one of the reasons I like making doll quilts. They fit flat on a
table.
このキルト大きいようですね。
しつけ嫌になっちゃいますよね。
がんばってくださいね。
Basting is on my dislike list too...
and that book...I bought one for my Mom for Mother's Day and we drooled over every page...it's completely worth twice the price...
Now I need to find her a nice selection of taupes...
If anyone would like to trade Daiwabo taupes for a primitive hooked rug I'm in...
I'm low on $ but have plenty of primitive rugs I've hooked or great top quality wool to swap...
Hey there look what you got all finished! Good job, and wow all that basting. No not my favorite job at all but so worth it!
quilt looks great , oh when I baste I just keep dreaming about how I am going to quilt it and that alone keeps me going!
that book looks great, where do you buy your books from?

Basting is something I'm on the fence about. I've never learned how to pin baste, most often use spray glue, but do thread baste from time to time. It would be a MUCH easier job, if only I had the proper space at the proper height so as not to break my back and wear out my knees *s*
A girl can dream, right?
I am not crazy about basting either and binding is right up there with things I don't like to do. But that books looks like great motivation.
Your quilt is amazing! You do such beautiful work. I always enjoy seeing whatever you are creating!
oh my gosh Lea, i love the quilt you are basting! I can't wait to see it completed!
i LOVE this quilt and i can't wait till you finish it!!
