***************************
I was able to finish up the quilting on the Spooktacular Halloween quilt. I can't say enough how much I love these fabrics. They are so bright and cheery!! I just can't get a good photo of them. I was able to finish both the quilt and the table runner / bed runner.
Here are some photos of the finished quilting on both. All that is left is to bind the two quilts. I am going to try and save some time by using the sewing machine to add the binding. I'm determined to finish it that way. I can use all the extra time I can get!
While I was trying to photograph the quilt, I had a guest come in and photobomb my photo. I didn't know it until I was reviewing the photos. Of course I had to catch her in the act!
I was also able to finish quilting the Halloween runner. I did need to remove the backing and piece it a little longer to fit the width and then repin it to the rollers.
Now, It's time to create the binding and add it to the quilts. I am so exciting I'll be able to enjoy them for maybe 2+ weeks. My goal is to have this done this weekend!
Part II
Yeah!! A finish!! I added the binding to both the Halloween quilt and runner completely by machine. It did not turn out bad at all. I used 2.5" double folded fabric and used a little bigger that 1/4" seam. By doing this, it seemed to line up better when sewing down the binding machine on the back. That and the fact that the stitches are black thread on black fabric :-)
