Hi Everyone!

So I got off my butt and worked on my first quilt! I machine quilted it (really easy because I was so excited I just wanted to get it done!) and then started to attach my blanket binding, only to discover I'm about a foot short :-(

I have to wait until next week to get more so here is what is done so far!
(I hope these pictures work!)

What a pretty, sweet quilt. I'm so glad you took a close-up so we could see the fabric more clearly. I bet you just about screamed when you realized you were short on the binding! Oh, how aggravating.

You've done a great job.
