Back in August I took part in a Blog hop for this book
for my friend Sue of Quilt Times
You can read my original post Here
Finally I sewed the binding down of this quilt last night, and today, whilst we had a little window of opportunity - sunshine, I dragged the hungry one outside ...
but sadly not for long, he took himself off to town to do Christmas shopping, but I got to stay home and play ... more of that in a bit ...
not my best quilting when taken in isolation like this,
but overall, not bad imho
This is about 80" x 80" ish
(I haven't measure it exactly)
I know you like to see the back! This one is just for YOU!
Despite the problems I had with my machine whilst quilting this one, I was pleased to finally get it done.
Especially as it was completely from stash, including the 5.5 meters of backing fabric!
Sweet!
Edited note: I'm linking this up with Clover and Violets Stash Project here:
So, back to today, and I got to play!
just a little :) I'll tell you more about this in the new year!
I did get my ORB Quilt Along Dresden pillow made today ...
sorry about the awful pic, it was dark by the time I finished it, but I was in too much of a hurry to show you :)
This one is now going in the Christmas box to be given as a gift ...
aaah, now that feels better!
Happy Quilting!
