I've been hard at work making a very big quilt for a very nice lady. I have been enjoying most of the process of this quilt come about from the buying of fabric online to the 3 trips to the local fabric store all in the past month. I'm nearing the home stretch and I'm crossing my fingers I can finish it and send it off by the end of the week. Of course not without another trip to the local fabric store first. I had to creatively piece the backing and well I didn't think to get any fabric for binding....of course I could always search my stash but well any excuse to go to the fabric store just makes me so happy!
I'll be spending most of my day basting this to get it off the kitchen floor. It actually covers my kitchen floor with very little room to walk around. So I'll have to get it done today so someone can go through the kitchen tomorrow to get out the front door.
