It's not really the design wall, but I've mounted Jack's Chain onto the Megaquilter and hope to start the quilting process soon. I was so encouraged by finishing up the Feathered Star quilting, that I want to see if I can get this one to Tertia for Christmas. It will be a simpler quilting pattern, maybe with a few spinning feather fans in the hexagons but everything else will be point-to-point arcs. I apparently do not have any true white thread, only off-white, so will have to pick some up first.
Hope to share pictures of the finished Feathered Star soon. It's one of my favorites ever!
Here are the candied chestnuts I made that I couldn't get access to the main computer to load Saturday. As I pointed out, they don't really look that great.
Here are the girls having a gun battle after discovering an old, no-longer functional Nerf gun somewhere. Tertia was looking fierce; Quarta tried to fend off nonexistent Nerf pellets with a pillow.
Quarta really wanted her turn to pose with the big gun when she saw I had the camera. Tertia was having none of that.
She gave Quarta the old, non-functional squirt gun and kept the big one for herself.
