My main focus this week has been hand quilting! The white border is 9" wide, I can't quilt the width in one pass so about half is quilted now.
Here is the border from the right side moving toward the left, just like I quilt.
The almost 5 year old is a determined little guy. He enjoys climbing this tree.

Climbing trees was one of our favourite pastimes, it brings back so many good memories from when we were young children.your quilt is going to be a stunner when she is done. Love all the beautiful quilting and the blues with the yellows. Wow!
ReplyDeleteThe top border is absolutely fabulous! The end is very near now. Fun and cute photo of the young adventurer ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up today!
My mother had a small tree like that in her yard when my children were young and they loved to climb it also. Your quilting is so pretty and you are so close to finishing this quilt. Enjoy your stitching!
ReplyDeleteYou are so near the end that I think I will miss Blue Star around the garden...
ReplyDeleteYour grandson is so cute, he loves great adventures, and this is a great sign.
Happy slow stitching.
OMG .... I can hardly wait to see the end! This is going to be absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAll that gorgeous quilting nearly done! You must be excited!
ReplyDeleteThat tree is perfect for an almost 5 year old to climb! When I was almost 5 I would have loved it, too!
SO close with the quilting! It's looking good. I've enjoyed following along on this one. (and your grandson is a cutie!!)

ReplyDeleteYour quilting is always gorgeous. And I love your purple dancing stars! Your tree looks just the right size for a nearly five year old to practice his climbing skills.
ReplyDeleteYour Blue Stars is a work of art, certainly coming along to the finish line soon. I've really enjoyed watching your progress on this beauty. Boys and trees, they certainly go together so well.
