Vintage Bowtie Quilt Top






My bowtie project that I did as part of a sew-along sponsored by Fig Tree Fabrics is a finished top.  I’ve started piecing the backing and hope to get it sandwiched and under the needle for quilting this week.  The batting and fabric for the binding have arrived. 

In other news…


No one ever said getting a new roof is fun.  The crew has been hard at work on it for two 12-hour shifts and will have to come back Monday to complete the job.  It certainly is a messy and noisy project.  For a time yesterday we could not get out our front door and we have had to park our cars outside our garage.  Most of the time we have been sheltering in place with two very nervous dogs.

That bowtie top is so pretty! Sounds like you'll have plenty of time to stitch while your roof is being finished. Our crazy dogs would be constantly barking. Good luck!
