I just finished my second hand-pieced, hand-quilted quilt!! I would have finished months ago, but I had to wait until after thumb surgery before I could do the quilting part. While I was waiting for the thumb to return to normal, I started a blue string quilt and a candlewicking quilt. You can see my completed quilt under "My Quilty Stuff" (and the blue string). The candlewicking has an album all it's own, but it really doesn't photograph well. It is so pretty 'in person'. I can hardly wait to finish it. It looks like an instant heirloom. I am sewing the lace and blocks together using a sewing machine, but I plan to quilt it by hand.

Lovely quilts, BJ. I remember some from before, and the blue string quilt is so pretty. . In message , BJ writes

Howdy!

Great! Finished is my favorite kind of quilt.

Very pretty quilts, BJ. Kudos to you for the handwork.

Good job, BJ! Your quilts are really nice. :) But I couldn't find the album with the candlewicking in it -- and I *love* the look of candlewicking!

Nope. I had an error page. :(

Sorry - I can't figure out what's wrong. It works for me. Maybe someone has some words of wisdom for us??

Are you logged on in some way so that the page you see is fyeo and when we try to use the link it doesn't work. I've done that with Webshots before. I have to remember to log out to get the link that is accessible to anyone else.

I backspaced till I got somewhere ;-)

hth

I don't know. I'll go see if I can figure it out. Jessamy said she finally got there, but it took some work. Try

Thanks, Jessamy! That worked for me! :) Beautiful, BJ! I love candlewicking -- and that block with the S on it is gorgeous! ;)

I saw your work and it's all lovely - but I 'specially love those little bears. Just so cute!!

Thanks Jessamy. It was worth your trouble - what lovely work. I know nothing of candlewicking, but can appreciate something so very pretty. It's going to look gorgeous. . In message , Jessamy writes
