Here's a pic of the progress since last time....
With the new border -
I've quilted 1/4 inch either side of the seam lines - got lazy and thought I would stick to just the horizontal lines. Then I thought maybe I'd try one of the verticals. Of course, it looks better with that done too, so back to the quilting shortly! [I really need to learn NOT to think when I am getting that tired at night]
The fabric on the left is going to be the binding. Looks a little busy at the moment, but it will pull all the colours together and complement the floral next to it, which is the Mum's choice [thinking that she was having a girl!] This is to be the Family baby quilt made by me, so I am happy with the end result - suits either sex and looks great on the same style cot (darkish timber) they've bought. Needless to say, Anna hasn't seen it yet and doesn't even realise that it's started - so a big surprise is on the way!
Now, off this computer and to the sewing machine!! :)
