I posted about having this quilt ready for binding quite some time ago but since then it has hung over the back of a dining room chair - waiting and waiting.
I can't remember which thread I used on top (I wish I had written it down) but it was a neutral and I used light tan magnaglide in the bobbin. The batting I used is my favourite Hobbs 80/20 cotton/poly.
I will be keeping this quilt because it is part of my custom quilting journey. This was my third attempt and I did free hand quilting as well as some ruler work and I used an original design. There are lots of imperfections but also lots of really good parts too. There were so many lessons learned with this quilt and overall I am quite pleased with it.
I thought I would show a photo that I took out of the back door yesterday morning - our first snowfall for the season. Let's just say the dogs weren't too thrilled but I always love seeing the first snowfall. Of course, after the first one I am totally over it!

Congratulations! Love the scrappiness of this one. We have snow too. It's been snowing on and off since Monday. I love first snow. Earth looks great with a white dusting compare to the drab underneath it. Haha! ;^)
