Still stitching!

I'm still stitching away on the new quilt, and here's where I'm up to! I have only to put the final border on, and I need to audition a couple of fabrics first. I'd really like to get the border sewn on tonight after netball, then I can go to the quilt store tomorrow and take advantage of their tables to pin the quilt. How fun!

No sign of Holly helping while I was laying out the quilt for you to see. I think she's sleeping in our bedroom. The house is very quiet - I haven't picked up Amy from school yet, and Cam has fallen asleep after a very busy play date this morning. It seems such a shame to wake him, I'll leave it to the last minute.

I must send out an apology - for some reason I haven't been getting emails from the comments on my blog - just for the past day or so - which has meant I haven't been able to respond to anything that seems like it needed an answer. I'll check them out a little later and hopefully be able to post any answers here.

The weekend is almost here, and I'm so looking forward to a little relax time. Have a great day everyone!

  1. Ohh, so pretty! And that border just matches the border on your blog too... :)

    I love how the hsts are mostly blues, and the little flowers come peeping out of the darker blue triangle. Who's this one for? From the last post, I was gathering that it's Holly's quilt. :D

  2. Wow, you got this put together fast. I'm still plugging away on Pineapple blocks - it will take a while to make enough for a king size quilt!
