After about 10 miles of hand stitching….
The quilt is finished. Front – and of course the wind was blowing so things are flapping about in the breeze…
And back. Isn’t that backing fabric just the best? (Thank you, Anne!)
Label detail. Grateful thanks to all those who participated, both new and veterans of the past nine (can you believe it!) Ovarian Cancer fundraisers. Love your work, and huge hugs to you all.
I’m going to give myself a short break from hand stitching before my right paw falls off. Particularly since I’ve had to cease taking my pain and migraine meds for 48 hours prior to some tests, and things are not especially cheery 😕
Now, off to phone the director of the Trudy Crowley Foundation to set up a handover date for this and the matching cushion. The fundraiser is on 8th September, but at this stage I don’t know if they’re raffling or auctioning it.
If you’d like to participate in next year’s effort, let me know, and I’ll put you on the list. I have a theme in mind already!
And that wraps it up for another year.
