basted!

Well, I'm totally annoyed with this once-favorite quilt.
I'm not sure if it's the thread, the tension on my machine, or ME in general, but the quilting situation is not working right now. I was supposed to have this thing D-U-N by now and it's just not happening. ARGG!

Oh well. At least I got my very special tutu order out the door. I was THRILLED to have a custom order of 4 tutus for flowers girls in a May wedding. Nevermind the fact that I was totally winging it.
I must say she looks absolutely adorable in it, but too bad... it's in NY now with it's 3 other tutu friends.

And I finished up a little colored pencil holder for my friend's daughter who is just a sweety in general.

ETA: I should give credit to Pink Chalk Studios for the pencil roll pattern seen in Last Minute Patchwork and Quilted Gifts.

I'm also a little annoyed with the smudge on my cameral lens. Gotta figure out how to handle that one without making it worse... which is usually the way it ends up with me!

But most importantly right now, I must figure out this tension/thread/me issue. Tomorrow...

Good night.
