It's all done! Two quilts in two days, I can't believe it. I am exhausetd and my house looks like a tornado went through and blew scraps of fabric all over.
The quilt inspector was taking a nap and wouldn't move for me to take a pic. I flapped the quilt at her and she just opened one eye and looked at me... right, like that's going to make me move.
I'll be a little late to the party but, it's more of a BBQ and adult thing too so it's going to be going all day and into the night.

I took the quilt off the frame and went to trim and square it. I am amazed that it actually came off the frame as square as it went on.
It looks to me like it's being pulled out of square when it's on the frame but I guess it goes back to what it wants to be. Maybe why it's so hard to get something square when it doesn't start out that way. A lot of wetting and setting and making it stay.
