I have all this week to spend on my Christmas quilt! thinking of doing a ribbon border on it.. nice last touch to a very pretty quilt and Jan is right its supposed to snow again on Thursday so it is easy to work on the holiday quilt. Guess the stress of last Christmas has finally worn off! Just getting a baby quilt back from the quilters need to bind that but the best part about binding is its a peaceful evening all in all. One challenge and then the next

Dabbler, I'm making progress....your's is quilted. Binding is sewn on so just have a couple or 4 nights of hand sewing and it will be done and ready for you. Have a customer's quilt to get quilted that may take a couple of days, it's 90 X 90. I have to make a king size 118 X 118" at least he says, but need to find a quilter with that big of a table to get it quilted for me. It would go end to end on mine. Too tight for comfort and hubby won't let me knock out a wall

Hugs! I am excited to see I finally got the quilting set for all but the main block, still havent settled on a design for that. I need to wait till the MQX show cause the thread people will be there and I will have a better chance of selecting the right color thread for the quilting, the show is mid-april (10-13th) if that is ok with you for me to wait till then. The quilting will go fast once I start. I hate to hold you up too much. But I really want this quilt to be perfect
