    Default The last one on the LA!

    Back in April I put together backings and hauled 31 floppies out to the LA, with hopes of getting them quilted.

    This is the last one of that group! I felt intimidated by this quilt for a long time, and that is the main reason it's the last. I've quilted up quite a few since Thanksgiving, and feel like I'm finally getting really comfortable with the LA.




    The only down side, I now have a stack of quilts needing binding.

    Congratulations on getting them all quilted, sorry about the binding stack.
    I like the fabric and design of this quilt.

    That was quite an undertaking and you did it. Sewing the bindings on will go faster if you don't think about all of them at once.

    BTW it is very pretty.

    Jingle is right. If you do it while watching television, you'll be surprised at how fast it will go.

    I do my bindings by machine, so it only takes me an hour even for a large one. I don't have any king size ones in this stack.

    This one is absolutely exquisite! I love everything about it.

    Kudoes to you for persevering. What will do you with the 31 finished quilts? (You could send them to me. My 31st anniversary is this week. )
