Quilting away

Well through a very trying family time I am quilting, it helps to keep me busy. I am happy to say that I have quilted a lot on this quilt, alot more than I had intended, I am on the final border and am doing this wonderful row of daisies that I am loving......only 2 sides to go and then the binding will begin....sigh almost there.
