Pepe's Quilting progress..........

Posting for Pepe which technically it is still 2012 in Italy.......
She has also moved to a new blog see the links........... Chookyblue

Lentamente, ma anche Some Kind of wonderful procede. Ho finito il trapunto delle cornici verticali, ho rimontanto il quilt sul telaio nell'altro senso ed ora mi appresto a trapuntare le intersezioni orizzontali che dividono i vari blocchi. Poi mancherà solo la cornice principale, ma quella la farò senza il telaio. Prevedo ancora una ventina di ore di trapunto...

Slowly, but Some Kind of wonderful proceeds. I finished the quilting of vertical frames, I rimontanto the quilt on the frame in the opposite direction and now I am going to Tufts horizontal intersections that divide the various blocks. Then only will the main frame, but that will do it without the frame. I predict another twenty hours of quilting ...
