I love the library

My friend Megan and I are making a baby quilt for a mutual friend. It is the Pineapple Tidbits quilt from Buggy Barn. Our version is done with bright greens and oranges/yellows. We each made 12 blocks. Megan is in the process of putting those blocks together. I get to machine quilt it.

While I enjoy machine quilting, selecting a quilt motif sends me into a frenzy. I like to think that I just need more experience to build my confidence. Until I get confidence, I need ideas. Yesterday, I read the Going to Pieces blog. Diane’s blog led me to Kathy Sandbach’s website. Kathy has written a couple of books on machine quilting with a “home” machine.

On a whim I decided to see if the Salt Lake City Library had the books. Believe it or not, they had both of them. I put them on hold. I’ll pick them up on Saturday. If I really like them I’ll buy them.
