Gardeners Journal is finished!
I tell you, it was hard at times to keep working on this quilt for someone who likes to chop and change projects; but the encouragement of the Stitch-a-Long was fantastic! Thanks to Dale, Peg and Chooky who got it started; and thanks to Chooky for running the blog.
I am so so SO pleased to have this quilt finished, an achievement!
I have also finished binding FORKS, it has only taken a bit over twelve months from start to finish, LOL!
I am marvelling at this quilt, it looks so different with the binding on!
I love the backing too.
Forks completed.
I started on a baby quilt this morning for my sister. DH picked the pattern out a couple of days ago.
The crosses are dainty!

Oh Wow! you've been busy, they all look terrific! I have really struggled to stay focussed on my Gardener's Journal, only 2 blocks to go.
Both quilts look great - very different from each other but wonderful. Isn't it nice to finish, especially if it's been a long time coming? I only have to sew down the binding and do a label on my GJ. Then I really have to work hard on the bed quilt I owe my garnd-neice. It's a bit late!
Fan-tastic Bec. So wonderful to see these quilts finished. They are both so lovely and the baby quilt looks so pretty too.
Well done!!!!

Two great finishes Bec. I'm still hand quilting Down in the Garden, so I know how much work is in involved in a very similar quilt.
