    Good morning Everybody!!
    I have just finished the meandering on my Pinwheel Party! :D
    This was my first weekly quilt-a-long from Twiddletails, in February/March 2010. I made each block twice, so my quilt is double the original size.
    I am still practising on my New Joy Quilt frame which I received in May as an early b/day gift from DH.... so please don't look too closely .... pics are a bit grainy ... sorry ...! :D
    I was in a hurry to get it finished on Saturday afternoon ... but when I changed the bobbin, the needle suddenly came down ... right through my middle-finger's nail ... :!: I swear I don't know how that happened - I was not near that needle!) :oops:
    Luckily DH was home ... we had to take an unplanned trip to the ER to remove the needle ... man! but I felt stupid getting the doc out for a 1 minute job! :oops::thumbdown:
    So ... yesterday being Sunday, I only worked on it again this morning ....
    I am off to do the binding ...
    Hope y'all have a lovely day!

    Hope your finger feels better. I can't believe the difference between quilted and non-quilted. So pretty.
