Here's my efforts for yesterday & today. Binding this huge quilt (by machine)
& making four matching pillowcases.
This quilt top is pretty old. This was one of the last projects that my dear sweet
friend Marian & I did together. I forget if hers was the same fabric or different,
different I think.
It sat unquilted for close to ten yrs? decided to get it off my plate.
So this is why it's a little dated. This was right after the "Garden Trellis" pattern
first came out.
I decided to try poly batting to make it a bit puffier & other than making it harder to
apply the binding I think I like the results, not quite so flat.
SO Done is Good! Jill

That's lovely Jill, well done. I know what you mean about "Done is good !" When my quilting friend (also a Marion) died, a few years ago, I promised to finish her last quilt. It took me awhile to feel any enthusiasm for doing so, but it was such a relief when it was finished..
It looks so pretty on the bed. Glad you took the time to finish it.
Great quilt Jill. It is so worth the wait. That is one of my first quilt pattern attempts as well. It is also one of my favorite quilts to have on my bed.
