Quilt, Day 2

I successfully sewed the back panels without my usual difficulties. My biggest problem with the next step? The cats. Only the squirt bottle kept them off my wrinkle-free quilt sandwich.





I've read about basting with pins, I've read about basting with needle and thread -- so when I ran out of safety pins, I switched to needle and thread. The pins took longer, but they do seem more dependable.



I've just installed my new walking foot, so tonight I plan to start quilting. I guess I'll find out if the basting worked.
