Woohoo, a finish and some great news!

***Good news first: This morning I found out that my uncle is out of critical care! Now just a couple of days to wait before we find out Grandad's new prognosis.***

I finally sat down with my quilted panel and my homemade binding and finally got this baby bound!


I am so pleased I got around to it, and no single step was as hard as I expected. There's a fair bit I would differently with it, if I was going to do it again- but I have plenty of time to practice and plenty of quilts in line to practice on!




Still on a high after completing my binding, I went out to the Fabric Guild and picked up some batting to get ready to work on my Mystery Mix Tape next.

Making progress

Thought I would share some of my progress on Numero Uno, I am really taking my time on this while I procrastinate finding other things that NEED to be done right now!



My first full size quilting (because, although mug rugs were great practice, I don't think they really count)...


which I really enjoyed, and once I had a good rhythm I think I could have gone on and on!

and the binding is prepped and ready to go...



ready for the final task... maybe later, but in the meantime at least I can tick off a couple of things on my ginormous daily to do list!
