Quilt #1 on the Frame

Yesterday I loaded Rambling Rose on the quilting frame. Look what I saw when I looked out the window! The turkeys were back, but in front of the house. They the time I got downstairs to get the camera, they were almost to the tree line.

Saturday night it rained and then Sunday the temps dropped so everything is ice. This is looking east from the dog kennel. I was so worried about the boys going out on the ice, but they didn't horse around.

Here is Rambling Rose on the frame. It's huge.....like 87 x 108! I think this is the largest top that I've quilted so far. I started quilting it tonight and after emptying 3 bobbins, I'm about 1/4 done. I'll work on it more on Wednesday since we'll be heading to a bball game tomorrow night. See that rubbermaid container underneath the batting? That's full of tops waiting to be quilted, along with some tops on the container and next to it.

Today was my first day back to work since Christmas Eve. It was pretty busy. Tomorrow hopefully will be a little slower.
