Today I finished sewing down the binding on my quilt for Caring with Quilts. It will be in the mail tomorrow, on it's way to brighten someone's day (I hope). I'm happy I took the time to finish it off, and whilst it's not the best quilt I have ever made, I like it more today than I ever have before. It's amazing what a bit of quilting can do to an ordinary flimsy.
My little hexies are all sewn together, and will soon become a bag. The fabric behind is what i'm using for the lining.
I think they even look pretty from the back.
So ends another wonderful weekend. Have a great week.
