A Promise of Spring

I finally finished the binding on my triangle trees wall hanging that I have now decided to name 'A Promise of Spring'.  The colours remind me of the young foliage in the spring so it sounds appropriate to me.  For some reason I had a brain misstep when I was doing the binding and had to rip the corners out even though I knew darn well how it was supposed to be sewn to create nice mitred corners.  They are not perfect now but I shall live with it.  Just a quilt label to go onto it and it's done!


I finished the stippling on another UFO and learned a lot from that about maneuvering a larger quilt through my DSM.  The stippling is a bit rough in a few spots but I anticipate that the more quilting I do the more I will improve.  And I am really looking forward the the practice and was so thrilled with my accomplishment on the UFO each time I walked by the room and caught a peek of it.  I am currently working on the binding and will have show and tell when it's done.  

Meanwhile I am thinking about my next project.  I have a Bonnie Hunter top finished and purchased the batting for it the other day so there will be more quilting in my future.   I do have a plethora of project choices from the many new books I have so I can't wait to see what I come up with next!

Hoping you are having a great day!
