BP....Quiet achiever!

  I have been slowly ticking away at a few things over the  last week.

Some little mug rugs finally finished.


I think though I need to bind a different way as I really don't like the fussiness of  trying to sew the side up...tried a different edge and still I'm not happy with it.  A bit to bulky.



And look ....Finally there is a bit of sun to take a photo of the quilt top.... pity it was a bit windy...




I have another project but all will be revealed in a few days.....I need to write a tutorial!   eek!
Oh and the Christmas tree got the chop too.


Going to link up today For WIP Wednesday.... don't get time to do it that often.  

My last day off today so will get some binding done, and now I have no excuse to get this quilt top basted.....but the Swoon blocks came out last night....I'm finally ready to trim then and get the quilt top put together.

Erin.

    I like the mug rugs. I've been thinking I want to make some of them too. And I agree about the binding. Not sure what to do with the ones I want to make either.

    Very cute! New follower since giveaway day. You didn't ask, but I have always found this tutorial to be the very best on closing binding, and I like it so much I always spread the word about it: http://heatherbailey.typepad.com/photos/continuous_quiltbinding/index.html
