My list and a binding finished...

I spent some time yesterday cleaning my quilting room. I also made a list of all the quilts ( assorted sizes, some are table toppers) that have "needs". Now I'm not saying I will get all these needs taken care of this summer, but it helps to know what is there so I can take a stab at it.

I have 7 that need bindings....but the good news is that I have 3 bindings ready to go, and the fabric ready for 3 more.  I will need to find fabric for the 7th one.

I have a lot that need to be quilted, so I organized them into 2 groups by whether I have a back for them or don't have a back. I was surprised, but there are 9 that I have the backs for, so they will go first. Most of the quilts that I teach monthly classes on are unquilted because I have a hard time hanging them at the store...plus sometimes I just run out of time. I still have 2 quilts to quilt for my friend, too, plus my daughter's quilt to quilt and bind. Her birthday is in July!

So today, after some gardening, I cut and made the 3 bindings that were left to make. Then I sewed one on this table topper. I sewed both sides by machine, so it went quickly. It's a start!

Tomorrow I am sewing with friends...this is becoming a usual Tuesday thing. I hope to finish sewing my diamonds together for the St. Marks quilt. I haven't touched it since last week. I might take a small quilt along to bind, just in case I get in the mood.

I also have a Sampler Class tomorrow night. It is the last night for this quilt, so I will need to take some pictures of their blocks.
