No doom laden post this! No, indeed not, but a finish instead! Please excuse my excitement and little joke....
The Front
I have added more quilty stitchery in those lovely blue and grey colours that I bought recently and I think I have covered sufficient ground to ensure that all stays in place.
The Detail
I am over the moon about this quilt (heehee) which is my own design and has just sort of evolved as I went along. I am just so excited - I love it so much! Have to say using pre-used fabrics makes for a soft cosy feel.
Nearer my year end target - one more UFO down! Haha! Maybe I should add a little green man somewhere??

The Detail
It is bound in leftover scraps, which doesn't sound very nice but actually I think it looks great. As it was leftovers this is not bias binding but just straight grain instead. Must do more scrappy binding!
