Ready for the Binding!

There are certain times in the process of making a quilt that I just love:

  1. When I've purchased the new fabric, the plan is in my head and I'm ready to get started.
  2. When it looks like it's coming together like I want it to.
  3. When the top is complete and I feel like I'm almost done (but I'm really not!).
  4. When I'm all done quilting and I get to cut off all that excess batting and fabric.

That's where I am right now with the quilt I'm working on.

'

and last but not least...

5. When I'm putting in those last stitches in the binding and admiring the finished product. (That's usually when I remember that I have one more step...the label!)

I think I'll save the binding for tomorrow and just enjoy what I've accomplished today.

Such a great reflection. Those moments are the best. It's why i spend my precious free time doing this.
