Some great work being done here!
I have finished the binding on the Little Red Truck tree skirt! I never imagined that I would manage to progress this far on it this quickly. I still need to add buttons for tires and sort out the closure (I'm planning on doing velcro tabs - very simple). But then it will be done! And I only started this project on Dec 30th.
I realise that for many, this would have been finished in a day or two, but in my particular life stage I currently don't have that much time to devote to quilting. So I'm feeling impressed with myself. But before I can get too impressed I do need to actually finish off the last couple of steps...
I should also note that copycat was a good influence - I also put the Christmas decorations away yesterday!!
Happy quilting!!

Tomorrow I put a white circle in each eye, sew the blocks together and add borders. Top is done! Hope to have it quilted by next week so I can give it to the little tyke. Didn't go near as fast as I thought it would. Saw some fabulous work this weekend and it is inspiring.

Quiltah Mama--glad you were able to join us today. Hope to "see" you next month!
jmoore--glad you found a fix
WMUTeach--Whoo Hoo!!!
QuiltingVagabond--congrats on getting your BH top done.
I didn't get any quilting done today but did catch up quite a few things around the house and on the computer. All is all, it was a productive weekend for me. And now I can play in my sewing room most of the week.
Looking forward to seeing all of you again next month!
