One More UFO - Count It!

I set out this Labor Day Weekend with the ardent goal of getting a few more projects socked away.


Well, we had such gorgeous weather that it was pretty difficult to keep my focus!


Luckily, I had a little help from my fourt-footed friends. I was kept under constant furry surveillance, monitored for signs of wavering from my goal (and they weren't always this subtle).


But it's done! Six months after the fact, the March quilt has crossed the finish line. It's quilted and bound, but no label as of yet.


From the back you can clearly see my the quilting. Unfortunately also evident in this photo is the bearding problem I'm having with the batting. It's Kyoto Bamboo, and while it was very easy to baste and quilt, it's pilling through the fabric more than I'd like.


In other news, I took advantage of JoAnn's holiday sale to pick up a couple skirt patterns and some fabric. Above is the silk paisley stripe I'm working with at the moment, on View B of Simplicity's New Look 6300 pattern. I also bought 4881 with the intent to sew View C.
