more quilting practice. i'm proud of how well i matched up my corners within a block and cut everything to size correctly, but my thread tension still needs some work to get it right, get it perfect, top & bottom. and binding, i really need to learn how to do a pretty binding. it can't all be an envelope edge!
next up...matching coasters (tee requested BIG) and single blocks for the end tables, unless i get back on the gifts for giving. uhm.

It's beautiful. I love the colors. And it looks great on that table.
This really is beautiful! Love it!
this would make any table warm and inviting.
beautiful job.
coasters are my favorite thing to make!
This is pretty. I like the colors of it. If you go to Crazy Mom Quilts blog, she has a tutorial on bindings. It's really very easy once you get started.
