single girl #1

So this was my first single girl quilt. I just finished machine quilting #2, it's in the wash now. And #3 is a completed top. Since I machine quilted 1 and 2 I'm thinking of hand quilting #3 with the enclosed pattern. I really don't have the patience to hand quilt. I love the way it looks but I'm a single mom and I have at least 3 sewing projects going on at a time. As I'm hand quilting I'm thinking of all the other machine piecing I could be doing in that time period. Like I said, I need to work on the patience. I love the HST border on this one. I had swapped someone for their HST because she couldn't use them. I still have a bunch left after making a ton of things with them. I'm hoarding them for some unknown project yet to come. I just love the KJR and so happy with how this quilt turned out. The arcs and piecing wasn't as hard as I thought it would be and now I'm whipping up this pattern like it's going out of style. I love how I can use a 1/4 yard of fabric and also use my scraps. Plus I pin a lot of pieces while I'm waiting to pick my son up from school or watching a soccer game or over the summer I plan on doing it while at the pool.
