Yay! I finally finished my seeing stars quilt. Oh my. I was beginning to think I never would. For the strangest reason, it just somehow kept getting pushed to the back burner.
I am so happy with how it turned out.
The hand quilting was finished a few days ago and the binding was finished yesterday.
I don't believe I have
done all my chores faster than I did on Thursday, knowing that as soon as
they were done, I could work on the binding, then wash and dry.
I just love all the crinkly goodness when you take a quilt out of the drier. Don't you? It was actually still warm when I took these photos.
Thank you Allison for a great tutorial. It was so much fun!
Take a look at Allison's new patterns! I NEED spin cycle! :o) It went on my birthday wish list just as soon as I saw it.
Have a wonderful weekend. xoxo
