Tis The Season - finish

At last I am finished with my TTS quilt .. It really has taken a while but then I discovered that I am far too closely with both the quilting was and that the correct fabric would be used for edging. Has scratched up quilting again and then I had to replace the fabric to finish the edge. But this was my OUTTURN of Tis the Season :)



Thanks to Chookyblue for all your support under this Stitch-a-long for TTS..


Take care!

TTS Finally Finished....

Finally done the quilting on my TTS Quilt. So now very happy with my quilt, 3 stitchery wall hanging & 2 pillows done from the book so far.

I machine quilted as my first try at hand quilting looked awful. I'll try again when more time. The machine quilting has a few lumps & bumps too but a good pressing helped with that.

So last night I stayed up until I finished sewing on the binding, label & hanging sleeve.


Can I join the next SAL now Chooky? I brought background fabric for it from every quilting shop I visited in Launceston & Hobart while on holidays - good fun!

Happy stitching
