ARE YOU READY????

To join me in a 'happy dance'????????
I have finally totally finished the SKOW that I worked along with Chookyblue last year!!!!
It is even got it's binding all finished on it--
here is the back of it--
Remember I did this in rows--
first we did the applique in rows--5 of them--
then I did the batting and backing in rows--
and did the hand quilting on the blocks--
and then this past couple weeks I have sewed the  rows together one at a time--
and did the back seam by hand stitching and then turned it around and did 2 long
rows of hand quilting stitches on the row on the front!!!  lots and lots of stitching--
but well worth it!!!!

and in between working on this big one-
I worked on a smaller one--
I don't remember why I did this one--
but I like it and now it is done--
and here is the backing for it!!

Now I can get back to some knitting and the star blocks--right????
so--it's your turn -- what are you stitching on???
hugs, di and miss gracie
