I have spent the week just chipping away at the customer quilt. There was a lot of time consuming ruler work and freehand swirls to scoop up the fullness. Unfortunately, the customer chose plain batiks for the back instead of a print which would have hidden any minor wobbles. The back will not look immaculate since there was a lot of back-tracking. Although I make it sound messy, it really is pretty neat and an awful lot better than it was;) It will take me a while longer to take out the basting stitches and figure out what to charge.
Nella had a really good week - she submitted her application to Uni, got a part-time job at a local cafe and applied for a passport so we can plan a trip to London (by plane). She still has a long way to go with her anorexia struggle but these milestones are amazing.
