Here

One day turned into two days, two days into two weeks, two weeks into one month. Geesh. How does one month possibly go by so fast? It doesn't add up. So here comes February and more blogging!


There's a lot to catch up on. Let's see...we finished up all nine of our Swoon blocks and got the scrappy top done. (Here is a link to our other Swoon quilt)


We got us some BIG spools of thread that just might last us a lifetime...or longer ;) All 3000 yards for just $2.00. Since these spools don't fit on our machines, we got thread stands to solve our problems:


Here it is in action:


Run to the nearest store and buy one. Seriously, you won't regret it.

We've been doing custom-order quilts again and are loving every minute. Best job ever.


 

Did we miss anything? One month is a long time. We have alotta other quilts in the works that we will post about soon...but don't hold us to that ;)

It feels good to be back.

    I saw your thread hold in action and I got one...works great! I can hold those pesky large spools but they are horizontal on my machine and it is an issue but this! ...wow...your quilts are quite lovely too! I am a BIG fan of your tutorials as they help my understand the modern movement
