A Long Weekend

The quilting is finished on my yellow spiral quilt.  Now all that’s left to do is the binding. I still haven’t decided how I want to bind it.  I’m either going to do a basic 1/4-inch binding in the yellow, or I’m going to do a wider binding (1-2 inches) in the multicolored pattern I…

Yellow Spiral Quilt Finished

I’ve decided that the official title of the HST quilt I made using the yellow broadcloth and A Stitch in Color charm pack will be called the yellow spiral quilt.  And guess what?!  The top is done!  Of course, that’s no thanks to my husband who called when I was in the middle of the…

Still Going Crazy

With all the fun, exciting things going on in my life, I’ve been quite a slacker on all of my crafting and sewing projects, including my quilts.  Fortunately, when I went home last night, I started cleaning the basement, which is where my crafting area is.  I didn’t get too much cleaning done, but it…
