Prepping Quilt Tops

 My friend Ree is bursting at the seams to get started on  some wardrobe sewing so today I'm getting a few of my tops ready for quilting using what batting I have before buying anymore just yet

I've had this top finished for quite some time "years" lol it will be backed with a red polka dot cotton,I'm not sure what the battings called but I do know I'm not to fond of it ,I thought it'd be thicker when I bought it 🤷oh well it's here so we shall see 

Ree gave me some curtain lining a while back when I quilted the tie quilt ,a little weight & just the right amount of warmth so I'm using the remainer of it for the rustic Christmas quilt & backed with various shades of brown cottons

Grace & me both agree with a little brain storming there may be enough left for one more as it goes to the couch & is folded over ,I have other tops but they're  Spring/Summer so I don't want them heavy 

So I'll start with these two getting them ready for quilting in-between sewing with Ree ,so now to pull out patterns & fabrics,I actually have a head start as I have a jump suit that never got its zipper as my zipper foot disappeared & there's a dress already cut out & ready to sew up,

This coming Sunday my Grace will be 6!
