Quilt number 4 - done

All finished and waiting to be delivered to the most scrumptious little nephew.

I popped into Amitie on Thursday intending to buy plain blue for the binding but Jenny convinced me to try something else. After pulling out a couple she found the blue checks and I looked at her in disbelief. She folded it over on the bias and "bingo!" it was perfect. I nearly fainted when she said suggested doing the binding on the bias but it was so simple (with her tips) and really effective. - Thanks Jenny & Judy, you're awesome!
And because it was a Thursday at Amitie, this clever cookie just happened to be there teaching a class.
And I haven't shared with you that I was lucky enough to win a giveaway of some lovely fabric from this lovely lady the other week. Check it out here. Thanks Andi - you are also in the awesome chick category!






Now what will I do for number 5 ???


(I finished it 2 days ago and am a bit lost without one to play with - is this the begining of a quilting addiction .......)
