The Pink Zig - finished top

Done - good fun to make and soon off to its new owner, born this Tuesday in Southern Germany.

Pink Zig is almost finished!

The binding has gone on ... more photo documentary to follow on this. I have taken a shine to machining binding on, very quick and I am getting quite good at it.

Now I only need to tie up loose ends and this one's finished too.

Quilting progress on the Pink Zig

Last weekend in Berlin (if you're ever in Europe, you simply MUST visit Berlin!), I saw the bump that this quilt is going to go to ... all the more motivation to get it finished. Baby is due in July - and a lot of other assorted projects before that.

Currently I'm quilting along the zig-zag, I've made the binding and will machine it on entirely.

I'm having a very productive week

This is the central section of a baby quilt for a girl due in July. Since taking this photo yesterday, I have added a wide border and pieced the back as well as the wadding. Even the binding is assembled, ironed and ready to go!

Now off to sandwich and then I need to decide how I want to quilt it. Stipple or zig-zag?

PS: This is post No. 499 ...

Home found for Pink Zig

I have just spoken to my cousin and - unbeknown to him - the Pink Zig has found its "target", a sweet baby girl to be born this summer. Yay.

Assembly halted by lack of swirly fabric

We will be a Zig Zag quilt

Would it be a bad thing to start yet another top while three already float around unfinished? I'm really itching to try a quick whip-up of zig zags ....
