My week-end is over, we're 10 hours ahead of you all in North America. Didn't finish but I'm happy with my progress. I still have more outline quilting to do, but I needed a break from it so I went ahead and cut the binding and sewed it on. I often do that once I've quilted my project enough to stabilize it - I just like to get rid of any extra bulk since I'm doing this on a DSM. Probably shouldn't - but it hasn't caused me any grief ... yet.
