OMG: Quilt Complete!
My August goal for Elm Street Quilts' OMG was to bind this quilt. I prepped the binding in early August, stitched it to the quilt front in the middle of the month, and hand stitched the binding to the back a few days ago. It was a month long process (with lots of breaks!). I was also reminded of how much I enjoy hand stitching the binding--a nice relaxing evening on the couch!
I tried to take a few decent photos of the quilt, made using Shelley Cavanna's Gloaming collection. Let me set the stage for you here--my assistants this day were two very enthusiastic boys, ages 7 and 4.
This one held the quilt beautifully straight until I asked him to duck his head down below it. Then it went crooked. :)
This one felt he needed to be in the picture.
So we switched. This is me holding the quilt, while the 7 year old takes photos with the "good" camera, and the 4 year old takes way too many shots with my iPhone. Turns out the 4 year wins--the whole quilt in the picture, and the photos is straight!
Now to write the pattern...
Also, I've picked a winner from the Free Motion Fantasy Hop!
Congratulations, Linda W.!
