Contrary Mary will be contrary no more! I finished the handwork earlier this morning. She's in the washer now, cleaning up her act!

First she was too long and too skinny so she needed some fattening up! How, was a big quandry! Finally got that taken care of and realized I'd put the sides on the opposite sides from where they were intended. Still okay. Then just as I was finishing machine stitching her binding on I snipped the backing. Sigh! SO, after the binding was hand stitched down I had to add a "band-aid" to the back of the quilt. Fortunately I had some fabric with Mary Engelbreit's name so I whacked off the Mary and stitched it on. She is done! She measures 50" X 72"

SO, with Contrary Mary and Garrulous Quilt, I seem to have a series theme going here. I have no idea why my quilts have all decided to be so assertive but they have! What will be next, I ask?

Happy quilting! :lol:
