Cut to Pieces. I e-mailed Angela and told her I loved it so much I was making one similar : )
I finished the binding this morning. I've been struggling with the lighting in the house this dreary month, so since it has warmed up slightly ( -14) I ventured outside to get a picture. What better place to take a picture of a tree skirt than around a tree? It started snowing as soon as I came in.
The binding fabric was a hard decision, because I wasn't sure I would like it. I LOVE how it looks.
My "Hometown Birdies" is finished, but not quilted. I did have it over half done, but picked it all out. Free motion is not my thing so off to the quilter it goes!
I will post a picture when it's finished. Hopefully my daughter-in-law likes this enough to have it for the next little one.
Tomorrow is Moda club at the shoppe. I finished step 4 of the mystery quilt, which results in the first block.
I will be back with pictures from the meeting, so stay tuned.
Have a great week-end.
Fabulous - I love the tree skirt and square too, looks good around your outside tree. And the mystery quilt, the colours are wonderful. I will be thinking about you at Moda - enjoy and post lots of pictures. I will be cuddling little Ayla instead.
