Easy, lazy day

An easy lazy day, still a widow--I can do whatever I want, whenever. Quilted a couple, shipped orders, worked on the web site, bound three, and wondered where the day went.

I liked seeing these charity quilts bound, and up on the shelf ready to give away. For the two Nap Times I used binding scraps. The busy border just has denim blues. On the one with the quieter plaid border I put bright pieces on. I usually like to use zippy bindings when the border is on the plain side, and especially when there is no zippy inner border, as was the case here.The little yellow and turquoise is another aged UFO. It was made from 4" squares, left from at least 2 projects. There are 88 squares in the middle, 8 x 11. Then a 2 1/4" border, and 46 squares for the outside border (I am always amazed that the border takes more than half the number of squares that the interior takes). It finished about 38"x 48".

Cut and laid out the 5 and Dime Garden Party--looks pretty good on the floor.










Today's best....finishing, finishing, finishing, and putting away.
