Getting it done – one piece at a time…

Hampton Ridge BOM
Block 21 Finished
April 20, 2014

The bulk of Easy Street has been quilted and all I’ve got left to do is the borders.  I’m going to try to get these done tonight so I can put DONE next to this to do item for April.  But I’m not going to rush.  I quilt on a folding table because that’s all I’ve got and it hasn’t been very good for my elbow/arm/wrist.  Every other week I have to fold up the table and move it out and last weekend I was putting it back in place when I decided to try adjusting the table height.  The folding table is the kind that has adjustable legs.  I made them the height lower than the regular height which is really a nice size for a kids table.  But once I got the sewing machine on top of it, it was the perfect level to keep my elbow at that 90 degree angle.  I’m short! lol.  Of course, I couldn’t sit with my legs under the table but I just pushed the sewing machine all the way to the edge and my chair as close to it as possible.  I had to watch my back and posture  as I kept leaning down towards the machine but it worked so much better.  I was able to quilt longer.
