This week I worked on sewing on the binding on my Bright 9-Patch crib quilt when on the go. ...and yes, I'm waiting for bowling practice to be over to go home and have warm stew that has been in the crockpot! It's that kind of weather.
At home I worked on the Rainbow Ribbons quilt in front of the tv in the evenings.
I finished the binding on Rainbow Ribbons. Seriously, all this binding practice is really giving me a chance to get efficient at putting on binding. I think I'm starting to prefer hand stitched binding instead of machine stitched binding. Who would have thought they would ever hear me say that?
Oh this time of year gets exciting as I mark things off my list one by one!
I'm linking up with Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching here.

I love hand stitching the binding on a quilt. Such a relaxing way to finish a project. Wonderful finishes! Gail at the cozy quilter
I love the green dot binding for that quilt, Kathy! It goes perfectly with both the front and the back. That naughty little preschooler, lol! So glad you found your thimble anyway. Rainbow Ribbons is a beautiful finish!
I'm so pleased you are now a convert to hand stitched bindings, I think it is the best part of quilt making, like saying a final farewell to the process.
I like the thought of a warm stew waiting for you at home. Enjoy stitching the binding.
