second border completed, and now on to the HST ...
I am not sure how I am going to handle cutting down a HST that shouldn't have been that big in the first place (I am such a packrat! I HATE wasting material) but I suppose I will get through it.
I should be done by this evening, but I won't be able to post pictures until tomorrow night ... have to get to town to send picture back to email via tele ... are we having fun yet???
By the way, B.Zang posted her quilt/progress on the other thread ... she has done a very nice job!
and, the most exciting thing for me is that the size is perfect!
When I decided to do the mystery quilt, I was telling everyone about, including some RT quilter friends ...and, I told them that I intended to give the mystery quilt to Operation 1161 - - we are making a specific size lap robe, but I figured I could either add or subtract ... these things are just not that difficult for me, so ... I am sewing away.
I JUST read step seven, and there is the lap robe PERFECT size!
I felt blessed, doubly, triply so, since I learned how to take pictures and post them to here, I made the quilt that I needed to make, and I made some new friends along the way ....
and, thank you to my family who chipped in with all the cooking and bottle washing so I could TRY to get to my goal ... and, then ... will wonders never cease! They didn't get mad when I took my nap, and they aren't castigating me because I am a full day behind ...
aren't I the spoiled one, though <g>
