Some pictures of the Queen~oh my......now on to the hand sewn binding~♥

This ENORMOUS quilt is finally off the rack~lol! I am binding it with the machine tonight on one side and will hand sew the other side~ It's interesting how you can spend so much time quilting a quilt like this and the front does not tell the story at all~ it is a complete story on the back! For all the machine quilters who follow me you know how fickle it is to quilt a quilt with a backing that shows EVERYTHING! 
The only good thing about this "situation" is that it forces me to do it better~slow down~check..check....check...the underside! Oh my.....

 I will take this Queen out to the porch when I have it binded to get a better shot of the front~

 Here are my two girls waiting patiently for me to give them a treat~a scratch~some kind of lovin'!
 Where IS she? says Millie Vanilly~♥

  1. Oh wow, your quilting looks wonderful! I have a new to me HQ16 set up but have not started quilting on it yet. Guess it will be a long while before I use a not-busy backing. Never thought about that part, thanks for the tip. (LOL)

    1. You are going to LOVE your HQ16!!! Be sure you take lessons~I took 9 lessons before I discovered how I wanted to do my quilting~with a piece of chalk ONLY!!! Because everything is hand guided by me, I use rulers or circle templates (groovy boards~worth the money..) only when a quilt demands it~ have fun and e-mail me with any questions!
