Finally done with Midnight Garden, a sampler quilt I began as a block of the month some two years or so ago in a class. Got the binding and sleeve on in the past two days, and it's ready for the county fair.
Done in my favorite colors of purple green and orange. I have another quilt for the fair as well, but I didn't get the binding on in time, so it will have to wait for next year. I will be putting one of my kimono quilts into the fair this year also. Since the brightly coloured one is hanging in the local quilt shop, I will put in the indigo kimono quilt, though I'm not quite happy with the cherry blossom embellishments.
I may also put my wolf quilt in, but only if it can go in a different category from the kimonos. I will have to check on that before I make a decision.
Tomorrow I have to run the quilts out to the fair. I will take my husband with me to share the drive. It will be a fun day regardless of the looming deadline. I hate deadlines.
