Yesterday I set up my machine with the intention of completing the quilting on the Churn dash quilt. I had already completed about half of the quilting and I planned to finish it but I found the whole experience rather tiring and so I I left myself 6 blocks to quilt today. I like this little quilt, the churn dash blocks are cute and having found them lurking in my sewing cupboard waiting to be sewn together, this is a quick win. This afternoon I completed the quilting on the last six blocks and I was able to trim back the backing fabric and the wadding. At this point I realised I hadn't considered what to use as a binding so first I had to measure the quilt to work out how much fabric I needed for the binding. Then I played hunt the fabric. Nothing appropriate came to hand but I'm sure I'll find something in my stash.
Yesterday evening I did a little more work on the table cloth.
This evening I'm going to sit and watch something on TV. I may do some knitting but I'm not totally sure. I've felt tired all day. I suppose I could go to bed early but then I'll just wake up early.
