Two Bindings

The countdown has started for the end of 2010 and my challenge to finish A LOT of UFOs.  I am at 27 today, but I am binding two quilts that are back from Catherine Martin, my long-arm quilter.


This one has been finished 
and is currently in the dryer, 
preparing itself for a photographic "sitting" tomorrow.


I only managed to sew down one side of this one 
before we had to dress for dinner 
at a fancy-shmancy restaurant here in Grand Rapids, The 1913 Room.

Our friends, Dianne and Ray, found a "buy one entree, get one free" coupon for us, and we are all going together.  Celebrating New Year's Eve one night early, and no crowds on the streets!

So, back to the binding, between the black one and the pink one I'm pretty darn sure that I'm going to have two more completions on the last day of the year.  Hurray!

Sara

Gratitudes:

Friends who share their dinner coupons
Exercise class that got me moving more freely this morning
NPR with classical music, I enjoy it every day

Just discovered your blog today and have had a fun time reading through old posts. Is there a way you can send me post updates via e-mail? I personally don't use GFC (guess I just haven't gotten the hang of it). Do you know how to put the "receive post updates via e-mail" option on your blog for me? dmj53(at)hotmail(dot)com
