 Trusted helper bee hard at work keeping me safe!!

The next step is to trim the quilt and bind it.  Hopefully I will get the binding made tomorrow and by next weekend the quilt should be finished . . . fingers crossed.

I will at some point use a better camera and get some better close up shots of the quilting and a full-size view.  Until then, I hope everyone is having a WONDERFUL weekend!!

It looks just great - wish I could see it in person but I know you do beautiful work so I don't need to see it to know that. She is going to love it - thanks so much Joyce! You are the best!
