Binding On Ringo Lake

Image may contain: indoor

I finally got to sew the binding onto On Ringo Lake. I loved sewing this. It means this monster quilt is almost finished!

It didn't take as long as I expected. I put the walking foot onto my machine and just kept sewing each side until it was done. It's always a satisfying feeling to finish any project.

The quilt doesn't look much different after the binding has been sewn. I think it just looks more finished. There are no stray threads along the edges anymore!

Here's a photo of the back so you can see all the lovely quilted texture. It hasn't even been washed yet! I love this!

Quilting and Freezing

 Although we haven't had anymore snow, the weather has not been good. The temperatures are low and the wind chill just makes them lower....
