Almost finished....

I got this ready to quilt back in April....but I have not worked steady on it for one reason and another. After we got our older daughter moved last week, and I got over being sick, I decided to get busy. I had got about half of it quilted previously, and the past three or four days have really spent time on it. The quilting is done, and I have almost finished the second spool of thread. They each had 500 yards of thread.

If I was just quick at making decisions, I could have had the binding made this afternoon. Instead I didn't even want to think about it cause I know how I agonize over what to use. Maybe I will get it done tomorrow...some people hate doing the binding but I really do enjoy it. I guess I enjoy the whole process of quilting, except for pin basting the quilt sandwich together.

  1. I like the variegated colour of the thread. I think you are very patient to sew as many quilts as you do!

  3. You've gone through almost 100 yards of thread on your quilt? I'm impressed.
