Mystic Ocean Mermaid and Seahorse Quilt and An Update

I just finished up a colorful summer quilt. The digital panel by Mystic Ocean features a mermaid riding a huge seahorse.

The panel just needed borders, batting, and backing to get it ready for quilting.

Are you familiar with Edge to Edge Quilting? It is simply quilting in the hoop.

I used the bubble design in Extension Packet 6 of  Amelie Scott Designs. I love how a big bubble surrounds the mermaid's face. 

Craft/Sewing Room Update: I've been working on moving my sewing machine and my embroidery machine upstairs to my craft room. 

It has been a huge task. I've been selling most of my scrapbooking paper and lots of supplies to make room for my fabric stash. The storage containers below held lots of scrapbooking paper in the past. Most of the paper has now been sold and the containers are housing fabric. 

Sewing and quilting have taken over scrapbooking the past few years for me so I am happy to transform the room. My husband mounted a pegboard to hang rulers, etc.

I'm working on a small pressing station on top of a cart. We used a piece of the leftover pegboard on top of the cart and plan to add a pressing cloth. I've got a small iron and "Terial Magic" ready to use. 

I have lots still to do and more crafting items to sell but I'm happy with my progress. Thanks for stopping by - Judy.
