Default The end is in sight!

I am nearing the end of my son's quilt! I finished putting together that last 40 block section tonight. Tomorrow I will finish pressing the backing around each block, then add that section to the finished section of 80 blocks. I have the hand sewing to do around each block and then bind it. I love when the end is in sight! 2040 logs, 5 spools of thread, 6 needles, and many, many hours later, I'm almost finished! I'll post the finished quilt when I'm done, but I'm so happy to be this far I wanted to share! Oh, I'm doing a QAYG and glue binding. I'm liking these methods.
