I pieced this top February of this year while I was in Idaho. It is for a wedding gift. Well, I had plans not to be rushed completing this quilt – I know you have not heard anything about it since March. Well – last night I put the borders on , pin basted it and started quilting it. I LOVE the table that came with George. Having so much level table space to the left of the needle and behind is wonderful. I am really enjoying quilting with George.
Here I am working on the feather border.

The quilting is completed! (It about 10:30 AM on Saturday morning.) The wedding is at 3:00 pm and the reception starts at 6:00 pm.
I decide to sew down the binding with the sewing machine, that way I can for sure be done before the wedding. I don’t want anymore wedding quilts hanging over my head. (Please be patience, they are coming. I know, you are not going to hold your breath – that is probably a good idea.)
I like the corner design I did. I think it is a good transition from the feathers.
I even quilted the year & bride and groom’s names on the quilt. (Do you think that will count as a label – probably NOT!) You can only really see the brides name, but the other are there. Trust me!

Now to do a quick clean up job in the house since Tom will be home in a few hours (and I need to iron his white shirt for him – the QUEEN of Last Minute is in good form today.)
I’m so excited you have quilting machine. That is just so neat to have such a passion and now have a machine to match. I’ll be excited to see all of you neat projects.
