I stitched up this pinwheel quilt to use up some scrap materials, then had to search for a border fabric that would go with it. Found these fun little birds in all the colors. Love how it looks.
I'm calling this my recovery quilt because I recently found out I have breast cancer and will be having surgery on Monday, 11/4. My dear friend, Fran W, quilted if for me. I just have to hand stitch the binding to the backing and it will be all done. Had enough extra fabric I even made a pillowcase to match.

Best of luck and enjoy your quilt. I was working on one the day of 9-11 and was to start radiation for breast cancer the next day. It's a special quilt for me. I had a great recovery and have been fine ever since. Maybe it's all the sewing we do and the friends we make quilting that keeps us happy? Love to everyone who's beat the odds.
