Binding for Baby Quilt.

I don't know what fabric I will be using for the binding.  I will have to look into my stash.  Since pink is not one of my top priorities it will take some searching.
Keep on piecing and quilting.

The Baby Quilt is quilted and ready for the binding.

I finished the quilting on the baby quilt this morning with tears running down my face.  Our faithful Rottweiler / Black Labrador senior citizen went home to doggy heaven this morning after 15 years of faithful service.  He was a friend, guardian, nurse and comfort in hard times.  We will miss Max very much.  The last stitches in this quilt will be in his memory.
Keep piecing and quilting.

Baby quilt

I pieced a baby quilt over a year ago and last week I batted it.  I started quilting with basic straight lines on the diagonal.  It is looking good.  When I finish the quilting I am going to start putting the binding using the new binding foot I bought in June.
If this new foot is a great as I think it will be I may not be piecing much for a while.  Just batting and quilting my UFO's and then putting on the binding.
Keep quilting and piecing.

I missed the Hoffmann Challenge deadline. Maybe a good thing.

My Hoffman Challenge quilt top was completed and batted on Thursday.  When I looked closely for imperfections and missed points it was too late.  I will be quilting it and putting on a binding and label.  It will be the "Hoffman Challenge 2013 missed the deadline" quilt.
What a disappointment!
Keep on quilting and piecing.

Deadline is approaching for the Hoffman Challenge

This morning I decided to get up off my >>> and get back to work.  I am still troubled by the points and corners and am trying to determine how to make them more precise.

I purchased the quilting thread on my LQS 5th Saturday sale.

Keep quilting.
