Quilted

I have a lot of plans for this Easter weekend, lots of things I need to do and finish off. 
I started off with basting my siblings quilt - this was a job that needed furniture to be moved


I started yesterday and got finished today

 I just did nice, easy and quick straight line quilting through the stars


The back of the quilt shows it a little better


I really am pleased with how this has turned out.  Its not perfect: the stars don't all align perfectly and a few other minor things, but I don't think you really see that. As long as it makes someone happy then that's perfect

Tonight I will be sewing the binding on this, having quilted this one today as well (it's not big).  I quilted this one in exactly the same way.  Jenny is going to see her friend on Tuesday, so I want it all done for her to take

 Tomorrow I am cooking lunch - mum is coming over, as are the boyfriends (teenagers boyfriends, not me!)  They are both lovely, so I am looking forward to it.
Happy Easter!

    Lots of quilting going on - I really love your ST quilt and Jenny's friend's quilt is so nice and 'girlie'. Enjoy your Easter lunch tomorrow. Di x

    Thought you or your mum were keeping two boyfriends guessing for a minute! Glad you clarified. I like how you quilted the star. Someone will love that quilt loads!
