.....to say I have a flimsy! Not saying that I'm short but......I am behind it somewhere! Next weekend I'll be quilting it in the ditch, machine sewing the front of the binding and begin hand sewing it onto the back of the quilt. It may even get *gasp* finished! Three afternoons sewing....not bad considering the book said it could be made in an afternoon.....I'll be keeping my Slow Poke Quilter status I think! lol
Have a crafty week.

hint, hint...
Ignore advice on timespans in books as they are done by professionals who can whip these up without thinking about it! They don't seem to need to unpick/unsew either....which quadruples your 'sewing' time! Love the colours you've chosen and how you've put them together :).
Lol, 2 word captcha...aaahhhhhgh! I have a recent comment on my blog about this.
Cheers,

Looks GREAT! I LOVE the colors! Are you going to *gasp* use your Sweet 16 - maybe - maybe?? Might make a great practice piece. You could do different quilty designs in each section after you do the "ditch" quilting. And you could machine quilt the binding to the back - and then do a machine decorative stitch from the front - maybe go faster for you. Just a thought. ;))
