Tonight I put binding on a little quilt that has used up another 3 yards of fabric!

My dear MIL always said "we kissed the cook" when there was hardly a stitch of food left over from a hearty meal. I'm calling this "she kissed the quilter!" with this one. I used pieced batting and cut off about 4" wof of quilt; the 5 strips in the top were wof fabric pieces--nothing left; the pieces I trimmed from the flannel backing were a mere 3" and 4" longer than the quilt; and the binding came from a 11 1/4" piece of fabric that I was able to cut 2 1/4" strips to just get by. Hopefully pictures tomorrow of my 5 recent finishes from stash fabrics!
