Ms, Improv Eagle is being thread basted in place.....
That cone of white thread belonged to my Grand-mere...it is just perfect for basting....
And that little Depression glass dessert dish was also hers....
(I only have a very few of her things as she broke up housekeeping moving to
California to live with my Aunt Mildred, Mom's sister when I was a
young teenager...)
.
Here is the new thread I purchased for quilting....I just love these colors....
aren't they gorgeous--what a treat....
The good news is.........
Madam is holding pretty still for me while I baste....
{the trade off from pin basting using this method, is my back gets sore from
bending over so long; but then, afterwards, I don't hurt my
fingers taking all those pins out ....}
6 of one kind of scenario I guess.....

I have a few SECRET projects that I am working on these days....
Using some of these x-tra butterflies that flew in a few days ago...
across our rocky shoreline.
I have sewn them all using batik fabrics--I really do love batiks a lot....
Plus.....I have sewn a GA-zillion of my favorite 2-sies together, too.--uh
in TWOS..(lol groan)
Oh, look!!
this one flew in over a snowy field...
she must have missed the migration South..
I will have to put her someplace warm....;))))
Hugs, Julierose, La Blageuse (secret sewing-euse).
