The Binding is Done

Well the binding and label have been attached to the big quilt, and it is ready to go tomorrow to it’s forever home.
I’m not real happy with the binding, as I did it all by machine, usually I hand sew the binding at the back.  I knew I wouldn’t make it if I tried to hand sew this one, so I tried machining it.  I need to practice machine  binding so I become more at ease with it.

Here it is in it’s bag, all ready to go.  Sorry, can’t show anymore but i will tomorrow night once it is on it’s way.

Quilting the Quilt!

The quilt is looking pretty good now – I have spent today actually quilting it :

Trimming the edges ready for binding:


Cutting and joining the binding ready to be pressed: 


Tomorrow should see it finished and then it will be on it’s way.

I wonder what is next?
