Remember this pile of fabric




Friday afternoon it started looking like this

by Sunday night it looked like this

I added the 2 borders and girlie # 2 who 'just knew' it was for her loves it and told her sisters that 'it'll be finished in a couple of days' she wishes, lol I am giving myself 2 weeks to have it 100% finished as I am hand quilting it, then, all the girlie's quilts will have been handquilted by me oh I am using a verigated signature thread, looks great on the flowers :)
Now my redwork cushion swap arrived last week, from Marina in Victoria
ta da

How spoilt was I and lol I found the card for my swap recipient today oops, I'll have to pop it in the post to her this week lol.
tonight I am doing the backing, wadding, top thing I just need to iron the backing tape it to the floor and baste it, best get going if I am going to have it ready to start quilting while I watch Underbelly! I am going to hand quilt it as the other 2 girlie's quilts are hand quilted.......I may regret this one lol
does anyone know where my masking tape is hiding.....
lovely quilt for your girl........and the redwork cushions have all been great.........
