I hope you are enjoying a lovely Monday on this fresh new week! I am simply showing and sharing today- 2 more "quilts" I just finished on my awesome BERNINA Q20 Long Arm. #13-These quilts are unusual the first one is a T Shirt Quilt that I restored as it had zero stabilizer on it and was in disrepair. I don't usually take on T shirt projects but felt a pull to do this one for some reason. I took it apart, stabilized the t shirt sections, added some fabric to make it go onto the rollers of my frame, panto quilted it with Puzzle Pieces and then added a nice hand finished binding. It also will return to my customer freshly laundered, ironed and lint brush. I think it looks so much better than when it was first delivered to me! #14-The second quilt was actually a sleeping bag that was sentimental to my customer as it came from her grandmother. I took it apart on the edges (my customer had already removed the sleeping bag quilting), I removed the batting, added 2 layers of new batting, quilted it ( geometric stitches) and bound it by machine to make it durable for outdoor use if needed. It is now a quilt rather than a sleeping bag. It has also been freshly laundered, ready for use. What was really interesting about this process is I found the BERNINA Q20 Long Arm could go through unusual fabric- stretch jersey T shirts, stabilizer and batting and parachute like nylon fabric with 2 layers of batting with the sleeping bag with absolute ease. I used Glide thread on the top and in the Bottom for both quilts with no issues. It is such a durable, versatile machine! See the photos of both of these quilts below: Happy Monday!☀️
