On Thursday i sewed together all the strips that I had blogged about doing. But when I did the quilt just was not quite big enough. So last night I put a cute little pop of colour border (only 1/2" finished) and then a bigger border on.
Being inspired and not yet too sleepy to turn the sewing machine off, I got stuck in and made the binding too. One of the bloggers I follow is Crazy mum quilts and she had a quilt very similar to this in her book.
Yay for a finish - linked to these places.
Today I finished coating the bathroom shelves, so they will be able to get put in and the bathroom will be done. Phew......
ps - this is another quilt for the Orphanage - Hope Homes International
