Stitching Saturday
May 17, 2009
I had a lovely day yesterday quilting and watching Disney films, a day that is only ever really possibly when G isn't here he can't really stand them! I find when I have a project like this it's best to do it when he is away for the weekend so I can get a couple of full days in to try and finish as much of it as possible as when I do bits and pieces at a time I tend to leave things languishing for ages.
Something that really isn't possible with this quilt as baby arrivals don't tend to take in the procrastination of grown-ups! I thought I'd finished the quilting yesterday but a closer look during the daylight reveals a couple of places where the fabric has puckered so I am redoing a couple of areas today and then hopefully it will be on to the scary binding stage!
My cousin's baby is due next week and while I won't be seeing him asap I would like to have it finished so that I don't end up staying up till three in the morning the night before I go to visit stitching binding on by candle light!

your quilt fabrics look great! Nothing better than sitting hand sewing, watching a great film while it rains outside.
gosh I’d love a weekend to myself. Imagine all that I could get done!!! Lucky you!
I love that animal print fabric that you’re using, it’s so sweet!
