So I finished the piece that goes on my nightstand. This is my third dog bones piece (only one more to go). I am about tired of dog bones, but I think I will tough it out. Last one is for Kevin’s dresser. Besides once I am done with this sit on the couch project I will have to come up with a new one (not involving dog bones this time).
So, my free motion quilting is getting better. I know for sure that practice makes you better, but far from perfect.
I don’t hate the quilting here and my dog bones have improved by the third one.
So, my One Monthly goal for July is to trim and border the black and tan quilt I just finished quilting. I know, boring…..but it has to get done and The One monthly Goal is a good motivator.
Happy Sewing
Happy Quilting

I love it! I would be tired of dog bones after the 3rd quilted one. Not the whole piece, just the 3rd bone! Then I would meander around the quilted bones, and call it done. but you stuck with it because you know what you want. That’s awesome! Ya know what? Dog bones themselves aren’t perfect. Each one is different, so if you think you’re not making them perfect, that’s only because you think they should be something they’re not. Therefore, your dog bones ARE perfect!

A great goal for July, maybe the dog bones will seem “newer” after you finish the black and tan quilt!

I like the dog bones and how you meandered around them! Toughing it out tends to toughen us up and then on to the next project!

I can see an improvement in the dog bones technique! Your One Monthly Goal will at least not be dog bones. =)
