Quilting with Bee




Annette and Preston came up for the weekend and we jumped into the task of finishing their t-shirt quilt. It was no small task considering we had just sewn a few of the squares together before that day. When it became apparent that we weren't going to get it done before their departure.. and Annette was starting her musical the next week... we unleashed our secret weapon!!!
In the form of Dr. Shumway... the most speedy stitcher of all. Give the man a curved needle and vice grips and watch that needle fly!!! He sewed us all under the table... The quilt was done in just a couple of hours. Amazing.

ok can someone tell me how to post something in order? My photos always go in reverse order. What am I doing wrong?

So does Dr. McGuyver always have with him a needle and pliers? I guess it's his duct tape.

See our blog for a picture of the final product. REALLY great. OH and mom, you upload a pic and it shows up at the top, when you upload the next one it pushes that one down and becomes the top picture. So you have to reverse them. If that doesn't make sense I can show you sometime. I generally just type out my whole post first and then upload a pic and place it where I want it before I upload another one.

that's great. I'm glad you finished the last quilt. I'm so grateful for the quilt that you made me.

So Preston, the real question is, did you get the sewing skill from your doctor training or are you a closet sewing nerd? Either way, impressive.
