bound to happen


I love the process of making quilt tops.
finishing quilts not so much!
And so yes, I guess it was bound to happen ... sooner or later ...
I finally sent out a few quilts for quilting, the "treat yourself" option, and they came back home today.

Machine quilting all by Leeanne @ quiltmekiwi
She’s been quilting for me for years & I am always so happy with her work, see her latest post here.
And now I'm on a binding binge.

I'm linking up today's post with my two favourite linky parties, see R) side bar.

Well you have some work ahead but what a wonderful stack of quilts!

It's so easy to let the flimsy pile accumulate but the thrill of seeing the flimsy quilt is so wonderful! Hopefully you'll be enthused and keep binding so these lovely quilts can be put to use. Happy stitching!

I always figure eventually I will need to do that too. I think I have 6 in the stack right now - a few are smaller ones that maybe when my back heals up I will be able to work on one at a time but the big ones I would still like to get on my frame but I doubt I will be quilting for at least another month and then just very short spells. The quilts all look good.

Thank you Linda. When did we start our professional relationship?

Isn't it the best feeling when they come back from the quilter.It's almost like Christmas!

Leeanne does such beautiful work on your quilts! The quilting designs, scaling, and thread colors always complement your quilt tops perfectly without upstaging your fine piecing. Happy binding!
