The bindings need to be sewed on to the backs, but that's all I can manage Mon-Fri. :roll: You've seen most of these before (not all!), but I wanted to bring closure to these pieces. :wink: I quilted everything EXCEPT Danish Hearts. Quilting is hard work! My shoulder were sore! (wimp! :lol: )

My Tree of Life (R's has a brown binding--looks great--but the photos don't show it well, so I'll spare you :roll: )-- but look at the hanging sleeve on mine and Rachel's....

These triangles are a good idea--but my machine doesn't like so much at a corner. I don't like them.... so I changed to what's pictured below....

I hope this hanging sleeve works well--it's the easiest way to do it. Simple. No fuss. If it were for sale or a gift, I would have been more careful about the selvage. :lol: I like to use scraps!

Little wall hanging--has a hanging sleeve like above (without the selvage :wink: ).

This is a baby Sunny Day quilt made from leftovers from the one I made for me. I couldn't sell it, so I'm saving it for my first grandchild. :wink: :roll: My kids are 18 and 21 and have 0 thoughts of marriage in their heads... but it'll keep. Maybe in 5 years.... :D :D

I LOVE the fabric on the back... there's so much on here to talk about with the baby!!

Oh--and my daughter just finished this afghan. She wants to sell it! :D

I'm off to the barn now and it'll be back to the CW quilt this weekend!

Thanks for looking. :D
