Lots of Progress

The last week has seen a lot of progress and almost finishes!!

I got my binding on my "100 Modern Quilt Blocks" from last year's

Breakfast Club that I ran at the shop.

Helen Harford quilted it and it looks great - it is such a large quilt it is going 

to take forever to hand sew the binding down.

Here is a taster of the quilting.

 

   

I got the first corners of my Patchwork of the Crosses on.

It is going to take a while to get all the way around the quilt.

But it is going to look good with the blocks 'floating' on the cream.

I am not sure what will be the binding. 

I thought maybe the red of the squares but that is going to be unlikely 

as I don't have enough of it.

No doubt something else will work and it may not even be a red. 

There could be enough red in this quilt already. 

Or maybe it should be bound in the cream background.

What do you think?

I also got my Duo Star Quilt blocks all put together.

I have quilted by machine - in the ditch around the blocks and will now 

put some hand quilting on it.

This quilt is the sample for my class Stitched by Hand" on Fridays once a month.

It involves foundation piecing by hand and by machine.

I loved using this technique to get the accuracy in the star points.
