Circle Lord/Baptist Fan Template

I ordered the Circle Lord and the Baptist Fan template earlier this week and they should arrive tomorrow. Last night I pieced a back for my Blue String quilt and am going to load that on the longarm and quilt it with the BF template when it arrives.


Tonight I finished stitching the binding down on my 4th UFO for the year. This was a top my Mom made and gave to me to finish and donate. I'll take a picture of the finished quilt tomorrow. Earlier today I made another 16 blocks for my string quilt so I have 6 more to finish and then I'll have the 80 I need for this quilt. I've already started assembling the top so that will be done and ready for quilting in the next few days.


Since I hate to post too many times without a picture, I'll share of picture of my brother-in-law Jamie and my niece Sarah. Jamie keeps up with my blog and emails me if I don't post frequently enough!

I can feel your excitement--waiting for the delivery of your templates! Glad to hear that you have a quilt ready to go so that you can try out the template right away.

Sarah is really cute young lady.

You'll love the templates. I loved making all kinds of things with my circle template and the Circle Lord is better than what I had, I think.

Anticipation!

You're going to love the CL and the BF and . . their service is unbelievable. I asked the movers not to take the CL apart but they did anyway and just threw parts down in a box. I lost some washers and nuts and I could not figure out how to get it back together. Of course, the manual was in another box. I wrote Michael and he was prompt with writing me back, sending pictures and even called! Just a fantastic company!

Can't wait to see your quilt with the fans. I love using those.

Mary, you're going to love the Baptist Fans. I don't use my Circle Lord as much as I thought I would, but that may change since I just bought the feathered wreath template. I haven't had time to play with it yet. Have fun with your CL!!!
