Feeling Foolish

So last time I went on and on and on about this supposed binding that I supposedly made and supposedly lost.

*sigh*

I looked high and low and hither and thither, and nothing.  No binding to be found.

And so, I went to my batik stash, hoping for something like-enough to pass for acceptable.  What should I find, but a piece of batik that measured 2 yards x 21".  Really?  I remembered cutting the borders lengthwise.  I guess I assumed that I also cut binding, because who would cut lengthwise slices and then fold the yardage and put it away when more slices needed cutting? 

groan.

I guess it's better to be foolish than losing it?  Or so I tell myself.  :)

My entry forms are almost complete, and I am printing out my photos.

My quilt just needs the now-made-and-attached binding tacked down.  (And a sleeve, and a label.)

And as a bonus, these crazy quilted Christmas cards, which were not embroidered until January, are now ready for December.  woohoo!  At least one thing is early!









I promised pictures of the UFO Log Cabin.  I quilted feathers.  Once it's bound, I will share pictures.  woohoo.  Knocking off weekly goals seems to actually be almost working.  This is good. This is very good.  I may not be hitting exactly what I've listed, but my list is shrinking, and this week doesn't end until tomorrow.

hip hip hooray!

I will laugh at you as soon as I find everything I have lost.
