In Progress



My sewing room is finally back together -- it was a long two weeks of tearing out walls, ceiling, and putting it back together.  Hopefully we've solved the leaking roof problem and my room will stay dry next winter.  I have a few painting touch ups to do, and then I can move all the fabric back in!

While my sewing machine was hanging out in my bedroom, I used my bed as a design wall/space, and finished putting together this quilt.  I used 8.5 inch squares of a variety of AMH voile fabrics.  I'm planning to back it in AMH flannels, but I'm nervous about quilting voile -- I've never done it before, and it seems so slippery!  I'd love any advice if you've quilted with voile fabrics!
