You all have some beautiful work going on!!! I am helping a friend of my daughter make a quilt that she will give with her baby, (due thurs) to his new adoptive parents. Today we sewed on the binding and worked on using my embroidery unit to make a label. Was having some issues with the Em, so only got the printing done, havn't turned it into a full block label yet. If she hasn't gone into labor she will come back tomorrow evening and we will finish up the label. I have her working on hand sewing the back of the binding. While I type I have a label in the works for a quilt I made for my Sister in law last winter. I finished in Jan, it has only been waiting for the label. Em unit seems to be doing a little better now than a couple of hours ago.

I love your quilt-I love the sashing-really sets it off. (I have that chicken fabric in my chicken quilt!!)

Jim's Gem-What a sweet thing you are doing for your daughter's friend. She is so brave to give her baby up for adoption and it is nice that he will have a quilt his birth mother made for him.

I have a double wedding ring on the quilt frame, a baby quilt for my friend that just needs putting together and quilted, a bear claw for my son being pieced, a top for my granddaughter to sandwitch and quilt, a commenorative wedding wall hanging for my oldest daughter and a butterfly medalion for my youngest daughter, all in various stages of completion. Sure hope I get these all done in the next year or so.
