Quilting

I am a little over half way done quilting Friendship Stars. Sophie had a little hiccup after I loaded a new bobbin….its like the tension discs weren’t engaged and what took 2 minutes to put in stitches took 20 minutes to take out. I got the tension straightened out but still don’t understand what caused the problem. In any case Sophie has been fine ever since. 

I spent about 4 1/2 hours with Sophie and expect I’ll need another 3-4 hours, barring any hiccups. I’m quilting my standard free motion swirl from the Quilters Apothecary (here’s the YouTube link). I can tell when I need a break as I start to “lose” my way but it’s going pretty well.

I’m pretty happy with the grey thread although using white in the bobbin might have made it blend in more on the back. 

Soon I’ll find out if I run out of backing fabric 😬😬😬😬!
