All Done

This quilt will keep someone warm at night. Instead of having it quilted by machine, I tied it. Each square got four ties - one in each corner. Now it is soft and fluffy..

Snowy Sunday Afternoon

It was too cold and snowy to go outside, so I started to put the quilt together. First I put the quilt backing and top on the floor with the wrong sides on the outside. I pinned them all around the perimeter, then took the whole thing to the machine and sewed them with a quarter-inch seam. Next I put the batting down on the floor with the quilt on top. Now these three layers got basted together with a long running stitch within that seam. It is ready to be turned right-side-out, but that is for another day.
