Finished at Last

Two years ago I agreed to tie this quilt for someone.......... It came with thick poly batting. I began right away........ Then broke my wrist which put it on hold for some time.

Then I worked on it some more.........Till I ran out of thread. I got more thread but by then I was out of steam.....

Last weekend I got it out, purchased more thread and worked on it till finally the last spot was tied. I machine quilted the borders and went to the shop on Monday to get binding fabric. This past week I got the binding cut and on Saturday I put the last stitch in................

She is picking it up this afternoon. I feel lighter already knowing that this is off my plate.

We put an ad on Craig's list for items we did not want to move. I spent most of the weekend packing.................

The house inspection was on Friday. We have not heard from the buyer since. We had an inspection done ourselves last year to make sure there were no surprises......... But until we sign Purchase and Sales documents on July the 23rd there is still a chance that the Agreement we signed could go astray.............

I am still packing..................
