This past weekend I bound until I could bind no more. Six quilts that needed to be bound and moved on to the finished pile. I spent most of Saturday sewing and listening to a book, it was going to be a hot day and I decided to stay in. I did go out in the early morning to water my plants on the deck, but otherwise I stayed in the AC filtered air.
Sunday was still hot, so I went to work sashing and putting together the Christmas Figs BOM. It took about four hours, I was surprised by how long because it’s just simple straight line sewing. The blocks are large, 16 inches finished, so I guess when you add up all the sashing strips, 49, and the setting blocks it is a lot of sewing. It’s a big quilt 😊 and I can’t wait to start quilting it.
On the Quilting list, ‘Sew She did’ is still waiting for the wool batting I ordered to come in, I don’t have the quilt backing loaded yet, because I wanted to get Playdate on to the frame and quilted first. Unicorns abound! I found the sparkle minky at The Fat Quarter Shop a few weeks ago, hoping this quilts finds a little girl to love it.
Linking up with Judy for Design Wall Monday at Small Quilts and Doll Quilts.
Since you are doing so well with binding how about I bring you a couple more to bind for me? 🙂 I really like the Christmas Figs quilt.
