Looks like you're having fun trying out lots of different quilting designs too. I'm with Dana G - you should have gone out & bought a lottery ticket after that snip!!<br />I like the sunflower label. I always tell myself that 'next time I'll sew the label onto the backing BEFORE & put it together, then it can also be quilted in place'...but I never remember in time.quiltzyxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08847188443140845514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-24663281912439056892014-12-03T17:26:27.817-08:002014-12-03T17:26:27.817-08:00What an entertaining cat you have.

I always fuse my labels onto quilts using heavy duty heat & bond and I cut around the labels with Pinking shears. I think it is a more finished off look and no stringing happens. Heaven forbid I should actually have to stitch the label on!!

I enjoyed Smitty's pictures with the machine. He is ever so helpful. I would never let my kitties get so close to my machine because they would take over and I'd never get any sewing done.

Looks like you and family had a great celebration. I'm amazed at all the quilting you have accomplished lately!<br />Smitty is a good quilting inspector and helper! He seems to be very informed on the technical stuff.<br />I am missing my black kitty helper, Cayden. He went to the rainbow bridge suddenly, unexpectedly a few weeks ago. My Greyson and Vincent aren't interested much in my quilting. They are sweet boys, but they don't hold my quilts in place while I sew on binding or talk to me all the time like Cayden did.
