FNWF seems to roll around very quickly each month. I will be working on my SIL quilt. I have reached a point where I can sew the binding on, but I might still add some more quilting. I'm using my Clover clips that I bought from Red Raspberry quilts, they work really well (and don't poke into me like pins do!).
I love using the perle. It gives a nice hand quilted result very quickly. See you all tonight.......but if I'm lucky I might start a little bit earlier.

Thanks for the reminder, I always seem to forget or can't make it. See you there tonight :)
ReplyDeleteyour on the home stretch now!
ReplyDeleteI use clips on the binding too now, much safer than the pins, not to mention the pins that go missing for other feet to find.
The binding is the best part of a quilt - even if you do add more quilting.The clips area great idea.
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is looking lovely from what I can see of it. I am a big fan of perle thread for hand quilting too. Have fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of the clover clips too.

I'll have to check out those clips Susan.... I had pins going nto me when I was binding thecDiamond quilt!...
ReplyDeleteWill check out those clips too ... I've been using metal hair clips.
ReplyDeleteHad a great night with everyone :)
So very close to the big "Ta Da" moment on your quilt. I can't wait. Clips are so much easier than pins on bindings. I must say I enjoy stitching down the bind on a quilt.
ReplyDeleteI am a huge fan of those clover clips......so much better than pin scratches.
ReplyDeleteI use those clips as well , they are great. I love the colours in that quilt Susan.
ReplyDeleteHappy binding.
ReplyDeleteLooking good Susan. I use what look like hair clips. So much better than pins I agree
