What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

"Well .... I ended up with another April binding challenge finish after all!  My LAer got my latest three quilts done and they were picked up on Tuesday last week.  There was a hurry to get this quilt finished because a young person is going to be receiving it as a 10th birthday gift.  I just know there will be lots of squealing going on when she opens her gift bag.

On Saturday night, there was a zoom meeting with Chookyblue and this was my project to try and finish before midnight ..... and I did it!   Go and read her post ...

Well, I'm tickled pink that my top is a top.  That is an odd expression .... but nonetheless, I'm very pleased.  I wonder if anyone else participating in the quilt-along that was hosted by https://www.mmmquilts.com/ will add borders to their tops?  Go here to see other quilts/tops and the link to Instagram.

Have you seen all the progress on the newest sew-along called "Postcard from Sweden" at https://www.mmmquilts.com/ ?   Some time ago, she offered the pattern and since there was a bin of solids and polka dot fabrics in my stash .... well, I couldn't resist, now could I?  LOL

I received my pattern and then started cutting out as close as possible to the colours in the pattern.   My goal was to use up what was in my bins.  In a lot of cases, my colours were way off and that was expected to happen.
