My January goal for A Lovely Year of Finishes was to put the borders on this quilt, quilt it and bind it. I am happy to report the goal has been completed, with a couple of hours to spare!!
This was my second attempt at quilting a small quilt (31" x 37") on my Janome Jem. Actually it's my second attempt at quilting a small quilt on any domestic machine. I still need some work on getting everything pulled taut and basted. I used a polyester/cashmere batting, since that is what I had available. I definitely like a cotton batting better....less loft. But I must say, this quilt is already soft and cuddly.
I'm glad I made this quilt my goal for the month; otherwise, it would still be unfinished.
Now what will my goal be for February??
Awesome finish Christa...luv the piping in the binding!! Congrats!!
