Never boring, for sure
I spent many hours unpicking the quilting lines of my my first Ice Cream Soda quilt, then quilting it again. That was after I replaced a damaged block a few weeks ago. There were a few small split seams, which I also fixed. I never liked the quilting lines much, they were too widely spaced and and therefore allowing fabric and batting to shift. So not good for durability. I hope the closely spaced quilting lines will give the quilt a few more years of gentle wear. I have another one to mend but I have run out of mending energy for now. Richard and I went to see Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake. This was first performed in 1995, no doubt causing a stir in the traditional ballet world. It was absolutely amazing. Before seeing it, I wanted a swan tutu, now I want a pair of feathered swan pants. If you are not familiar with the choreographer Matthew Bourne, his productions are unusual, usually set in modern times. In Swan Lake, all the swans are male. The dancing was energetic and beautiful...
