Happy Sunday all!
It's been a hard week. A friend of mine passed away and the funeral was this week. It was very sad but we are healing. I was just given two quilts to quilt for Victoria's Quilts and the colours were so wonderful and bright that I wanted to get them onto the frame and quilt them. It was great therapy to work on these quilts and add texture to them.
The first one I used a grooved board at the back of my machine to quilt these lovely wavy lines. I love how it makes it look like they are lanterns blowing in the breeze.
This batik beauty just needed some texture added so I quilted a simple all-over wave pattern in a blue Glide thread. I love the bright, cheerful colours.
Waves are really a go-to pattern for me, especially for batik quilts!
Next I pulled out this month's piecing for the Sedona QAL that Sew Kind of Wonderful just started. It is just one group of blocks a month - not too much to do; but, really nice chain-piecing to do. I do love some chain piecing!
Quilt Therapy really is wonderful and does work. I am so glad that I have quilting in my life :-)

I agree. Quilting takes you out of yourself and away from your worries.
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. Quilting is great therapy. Whether doing the actual quilting or piecing a top, working on a quilt helps soothe the soul.
