Flowers & Finishes

Despite still being in pain i sat down Sunday & added all the bindings to the 4 things i quilted last week. I got 3 bindings sewn down & was working on the 4th but something bugged me about it. I re-read the pattern several times but still couldn’t figure it out. What to do? I have a similar table topper waiting to be basted together, got it out to work out the problem. Ahah light bulb moment. I really hate it when patterns aren’t clear on instructions. So off the binding has to come. Hence only 3 finishes to show so far. :)

 I started this with a friend many years ago. All it needed was the leaves hand-quilted on the border. So slack. :)

3rd finish. Small wallhanging. Yay 3 more things cleared from the ufo box.
