The custom queen-sized Dream On quilt I am making is coming along nicely and is currently on Mrs.Singer's rails being quilted. Below is the quilt top laid out with the batting and backing, ready to put on Mrs.Singer's rails. I always lay quilts out on the living room floor to get the three layers sandwiched together, and I line up and pin all three layers along one edge that goes on the first rail. One really nice thing about a long-arm machine is that the layers do not have to be smoothed perfectly flat when I put them together, because the rails take care of pretty much all of that when the layers are stretched.
Here are the coordinating queen-sized pillow shams, done and ready for shipment! The fronts are actual quilts, batting, backing, quilting, and all. The back has an envelope opening in a delicious red.
I am also making a 22" square pillow cover out of leftover fabric. The squares are ready to sew together - when I decide which layout I like the best! I will show those to you in the next progress post.
