    Default I'm getting there ...... Silk quilt
    35 blocks finally finished! Today I start to lay the blocks out and sew. I'm so excited! Also have enough strips left to join in random for the binding. I was wondering what I would use for the binding.. ha ha! I have plenty!! Here are the 35 blocks for you all to see. Some make look like the same because of the centers, but the strips are different. Hope you like them. I saved the little Tommy Bahama name tags from the shirts and I'm going to sew them on the backing after it's quilted.
