my helper

I wanted to spray and pin baste the bento box quilt while Jesslyn napped. I wasn't fast enough and didn't get as many pins in as I like. Little Jess chose today to climb out of the crib for the first time. She finds a quilt on the floor just irresistable. I backed the quilt with a vintage sheet and hope to get it quilted on my day off tomorrow. Guild Christmas party in the morning so not sure I'll finish tomorrow but should get a good start on it.

Friday night bentos

I got lots of bento boxes made last night and this morning. Now they are all ready to slice up. It sure would be easier to just sew them together as is. Most of the fabric is Amy Butler from a few years ago. I hope to get the top together this weekend. It's a beautiful autumn day in North Carolina but I'm happy to enjoy it through my sewing room window.
