I got to machine quilting the AC/DC piece this weekend finally. I am almost 3/4 done with the quilting. I can't wait to get started on the hand embroidery. There are some shirts that will need a lot of hand work. Some of the larger designs do not lend themselves to machine quilting as they fade from sharp detail to nothing.
While quilting on Sunday I watched the final stage of the Tour Of California. Peter Sagan won the green points jersey. I can't wait to see what he does in the Tour de France.
I was painting something on my saw horses yesterday evening. I had some left over paint so I just decided to slap it on one of the saw horse legs. Immediately this gave me a bit of joy. I then decided life is too short to have ugly saw horses, so I will be using up some old acrylic paint I have and make these pretty.

I agree, the saw horses should be pretty!
Your AC/DC quilt is looking good.
Your quilt is coming along well - I'm looking forward to the hand quilting! Please keep showing us your saw horses as they get prettied up - great way to use spare bits of paint.
Oh I must show my son in law this photo of your quilts - he will love it, great AC?DC fan.
Yes, it's a treat to see this quilt developing. I'm curious how you will hand embellish it. Amazing how a bit of paint improves the saw horses. Keep it up. Thanks for linking with AHIQ.
