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!
Kristie, at least you are getting something done...I seem to be spinning in a circle.....sigh!!
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!
It's looking really good. Love seeing what you achieve, inspires me to do something.......
I love your quilts! Have a fantastic week!
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. :-)
