Who's that sitting on my quilt?


The newly finished quilt
Yes I am channeling the three bears. Last night I did it. Yes I finished my quilt for the second time!! Oh I am so so pleased that I redid the binding. I used a mottled grey that I bought at Fabric Vision. It is the exact colour I had in mind, but not having any in my stash and wanting to use my stash I tried something else. Never again. Next time I will go with my gut feeling.

I finished it last night and threw it on the sofa to photograph this morning. When I woke this morning there was no Morris on our bed. I commented to Aaron that it must be summery and warm for Morris not to sleep at our feet, BUT NO..... he was snuggled into my new quilt on the sofa!!!!!


I link to these places and am thrilled to link this to Crazy Mum Quilts - finish it up friday.

  5. Your dog sure knows how to pick a great place to sleep! It's amazing how such a thin strip of colour can completely change the look.... Your instincts were right, it's lovely :)
