Hopping on board ... I'm going out of state in mid-September and decided I wanted to finish my "worst" UFO before I left since it's supposed to go to a niece that I'll be seeing while I'm gone. I call it my "worst" because it was pieced on two different machines so the seam allowances were different, which required lots of fudging to get sewn together. I started it at least 15 years ago and let's just say I can certainly see my quilting skills have improved in that time ... I pressed most of the seams open, but not all, so seams don't nest property, some of the seams had started to pop open ... I am having to take the attitude that done is better than perfect on this one or it would never get done!

Anyway, the top is done. The back is mostly pieced ... tomorrow I'll measure it and see how wide the borders have to be, attach those, and then it's off to the longarm lady with it.
