More quilting...

 I had a few good nights of sleep and now I'm back to being up all night.  Can you tell that my body does not adjust well to change.  :(  

 So I did a little more adjusting on my quilt machine and found that once I turned off the stitch regulator it sewed a lot better, not perfect but better.  I quilted this one of mine and it did fairly well until that last row and it was a headache.  I had to pick that last row out twice. 
 Overall it turned out okay, I just had to double check every stitch that I made.  Another one of my quilts quilted and marked off the list. 
 I loaded another quilt on the frame, you can see the purple one here.  It is a large crib/lap size.  I've decided that I don't want to load another huge one on the frame until I get it completely lined out. 
 I also got the yellow binding finished this morning on the baby quilt.  I'm glad to have that finished as I need it this coming weekend as a shower gift.  I still have 2 more quilts that need the binding done and that is not counting the purple one on the frame.  One of the quilts that needs binding is one that I forgot to take a photo of.  I'll post it once I start on the binding.  

I sat down last night and counted and I still have 34 of my own that need quilted.  

I guess that is all for now, Richard is sleeping because he worked last night.  I'll probably get him up sometime around 3:30pm so I had better get off of here and clean the house up a bit because once he's up I can't get anything done.  Anyone else like that?

My goodness you got your mojo back! Love that springy quilt and the purple one is beautiful. Look at it this way - you are through half the quilts you had lined up for quilting not too long ago. I think you are making great progress.
I tried to work on a binding this afternoon - the cat decided she had to sit on my lap and that ended that!

What a frustration to have to keep unpicking, but the quilt looks really goof from here!
I can't believe how many tops you have! The numbers are down from what they once were, I know, but they are still staggering!

Yes, why is that. I get NOTHING done when my DH is home. No real reason, I just don't

34? Wow! I haven't counted how many of my own need to be quilted, but I hope it's not nearly that many. :-)
