How satisfying to get to the finishing stage on all those quilts and then be rewarded with cake. I've quilted away for hours again on my latest piece today. It's on the home straight and might even be done with another good day's effort. I've decided I'm probably going to chance it at Festival if I can decide if there's a suitable category, or if not, I'll keep it for Leamington.
Yep, I needed a reward, and the cake was fab! I often put things aside saying "that's done except for the frame/binding/sleeve etc" and forget how long it takes to do those final bits.....I've run out of fabric so am having to go to Wheedon tomorrow to buy more supplies: just two more to do and I've caught up though which is a relief!
It sounds as if you're working really hard on your new piece, and I can't wait to see what it all looks like.
