Quilting the Corner Store
I spent several hours last week quilting the Corner Store. Yes, she who does not normally quilt large pieces quilted a large quilt. I went easy on myself, because my shoulder is acting up again and I didn’t want to … Continue reading
Corner Store Again
As you might remember there were good comments on the next to the last post I wrote about the border of this quilt. Rhonda was right, not that I doubted her, of course. This quilt looks a lot better with … Continue reading

Corner Store Progress – Mid May 2012
What I want to rant about is a very bad and getting worse customer service experience that has nothing to do with quiltmaking. I need to get over it (or at least put it out of my mind), delve into … Continue reading
Corner Store Progress
I think this project will progress in fits and starts. I made the new blocks (on the right) while I was piecing the Flowering Snowball. I used the Corner Store blocks as leaders and enders. Such a useful, productivity improving … Continue reading

I know I am trying to finish the Flowering Snowball, but the hand piecing is slowing me down. Since th cut squares and triangles were sitting right by my machine, I just started sewing them together. I just needed to … Continue reading
