Am finally finishing up my blocks...
I keep getting distracted by other swaps but today I spent an hour in the sewing room on the last blocks for this swap. Another hour or two and the blocks will finally be done. Then it's time to put them all together. FINALLY. Will post a pic - eventually.

Finished up my blocks, arranged all 56 of them and then proceeded to pull out 14 blocks because they were too light. Ugg. I couldn't find a pleasing way of arranging them so I'll use them in something else. As it stands now, the quilt will be 6 x 7 blocks. Not the shape i originally wanted but it will take too much time to make more blocks so I'm going with the basic arrangement below. Oh, I'll move around but these are the final keepers. I think...lol. May just have to substitute a couple more but I want to stitch them together this coming week. I've just got to get something done!

It's done
Hi guys
I just wanted to show off my finished quilt and thank all of you swapping and sharing your talents with me. I'm not thrilled with the finished look of the binding they tell me practice makes perfect but when it comes to binding I'm not sure if I buy it. Also is a closeup of the backing and lable
