Good morning! It's -18 this morning (but tomorrow is suppose to be the coldest). Glad I don't live where it gets really cold because this is cold enough for me! My digital outdoor gauge will error out at -19.9 so I expect that will happen be what it says tomorrow AM.

Not even any cat prints outside in the snow this AM - the outdoor cats are all curled up in the heated shop the last few days. They've put aside their disagreements for now . . . there are 6 of them outside.

I'm looking forward to another day of alternating binding and work in the BH Mystery. Not finished with clue 5 yet, so not started on 6 or 7 and expect we'll get 8 today. At least the last clues are on the assembly side, so they go a lot faster (no cutting and no trimming).

Now that I've got the larger quilts out of the way, the binding should go faster. I've got a few that have become favorites to bind up - that is a good motivator.

Yes Cannyquilter - I am machine stitching. If I was hand stitching, the first one wouldn't be done yet (probably not even started). When I started this back in 2014, I did one small wall hanging and it took me four hours to hand sew the back. That was when I decided if I wanted to make lots of quilts, hand sewing the binding was not going to work for me.
