Quilt for the Seminar

I did it again. I waited until the last minute to finish the quilt wall hanging for the silent auction at our master gardener spring seminar.

The top picture is the quilt at 4:00 this afternoon. The bottom picture is the quilt just after midnight when I finished it. In between 4:00 and midnight I helped set up for the seminar, attended my baby sister's birthday party, and quilted and put the binding on the quilt. Now I need to wind down and go to sleep so I can get up at 6:00 am.

    What a hectic day. Are you awake already? I wonder what time it is now at your place. It's 3 pm in Malaysia. Hope you enjoy the seminar.

    Hey, whatever works! There's nothing like a deadline to get things done. I like the quilt and hope you have fun today!

    Good for you for getting it done! With our 50 mph winds all night, I didn't get any sleep last night, either. Nothing like lying awake for hours wondering if a tree is going to come crashing down on your house or car! Hope you're awake enough to have fun today anyway.

    Monica, I usually am working on some project in the middle of the night before the deadline. Silly me.

    Silence, I enjoyed myself, but boy am I worn out.

    Linda, Me too. I look at this stuff and think "who is this crazy lady?"

    Thanks, My Little Family.

    That's beautiful Deb. Glad you got to bring it home. No one probably knew the work involved. Looks like you hauled home a good amount of plants. Sounds like it was a huge success. Congrats on all of it.

    Thanks Dee, I was really happy with it as it was my first attempt at reverse applique. We found a beautiful new born baby girl to give it to.

    Anna, it all turned out good. We made a little less money, but reached a lot more people. It is the people contact that counts.
