I'm currently on the 10th quilt, "Yellow Roses on the Barn". It is a Log Cabin, in the barn-raising set, with appliqued roses in the center. I have just made it down one side and have mitered the first corner -- it is a King Size! I did most of it on Sunday while watching the start of the Iditarod dogsled race on my computer in the sewing room, but have been procrastinating a little since. (DS lives in Alaska, and DDIL (to be) has run dog teams in races.)
Gotta get going -- two more are sitting here awaiting binding, and one of those, "Rock Collection", is also king-sized! Yes, yes, photos will be posted as soon as I take them and download them from the camera into the computer. I'm not very good at that so it takes me awhile. I admire Peggy, the Monday morning blogger, who seems to be able to do this effortlessly.

Comment by Debbie Snyder/WA on March 7, 2013 at 7:54am Wow! I hate the binding process...I think I would go crazy if I had a king size quilt to bind much less three. Better do some hand exercises....Can't wait to see your photos. hang in there.

Comment by Carol Ann Hinton on March 6, 2013 at 4:23pm Ha! Nothing to admire here! I brought this all on myself! I have known for nearly two years that I had to finish some of these quilts in time for the Sun Country Quilt Show, and I just let the tops sit there while I diddled around with other projects. Paying the price now... I hate to think about the two more being quilted by the long arm quilter. Maybe I won't get them back in time, ya' think? March 28 is the deadline!

Wow, Carol Ann, that is a lot of binding, but it sure feels good to see them finished, doesn't it?! I'm looking forward to seeing pics of the finished quilts.
