As promised, it snowed all day yesterday and as predicted, about a foot of the white stuff fell from the skies. With my mobility issues, it looks like I'm going to be house-bound for the next little while.
But that's okay because I'm accomplishing a lot...or at least it feels that way. I unpacked, sorted and put away the contents of four more boxes marked "sewing room" this morning...all before 9 o'clock! There are only two boxes remaining and I'm getting a little nervous because I'm running out of room and ideas but I'm sure I'll figure something out.
I finished binding my 'mystery quilt-along' quilt a couple of days ago but only got around to taking a photo of it this morning. This is the second of two that was waiting to be bound since just before we sold our house. I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.

I made a few changes from my original design and decided to eliminate the prairie points because I wanted them to be 'free floating' and this would have been a real hassle considering it was going to be machine, edge-to-edge quilted.
Happy stitching!

Such a warm and scrappy finish! It looks so cozy, and should help make your new home feel that way. : )
You are on a roll! Hope your new year will be filled with fun and lots of quilting.

I'm always super productive this time of year too - what a great finish to your wonderful scrappy quilt!
This is a beautiful quilt. I just love it!!!
This is beautiful. I could use a good snow day to spend in my sewing room. We had about 10 inches of new snow last Saturday (in South Dakota) but I had a house full of family to enjoy. No sewing!
Looks fabulous ! On the "to do list " for me.
Happy and healthy 2016.
Oh so yummy! I love the braid border. Enjoy your snow, here in New Zealand we are having a hot dry summer!
Your quilt is amazing and you do beautiful work!!

I just pulled fabric from my stash last weekend to start mine. I can't believe it was July when you posted the instructions. I guess I'm better late than never!
