Teresa's Black and White Mostly Quilt
Teresa died last October. I got her blocks that she had sewn together into rows, and I completed her quilt top. I got it long-arm quilted in January, but only just got the binding put on about two weeks ago. I am pleased that it is finally done. It does look amazing in this photo. I believe she would be happy with the borders I added.

Moving Right Along Slowly
Greetings! I finally sewed the binding on to my B&W Mostly quilt. Things have been so different this year. Sometimes it is hard to get motivated to put the final touches on some things. I did hand-sew the binding on this one. I did consider making a doll quilt like this, but decided to leave that to 'the girls'. Check out their recent posts by using the link, to the left, titled "Gluten Free Doll Quilts."
I wish Teresa was here to see my B&W Mostly quilt. I think I will measure it and hers, then see if they will hang side-by-side on my big display wall. It is time for the Wonky Houses quilt to take a rest in the closet. It has been hanging up there for three years. B&W Mostly is refreshing. What I was not sure of, but am now, is the b&w stripped edge on the right and left sides of my quilt. It is a design element from quilts earlier in the 20th century. It just did not make me happy until it was all finished. Now it looks just right!
