Congratulations to everyone who has stitched away on their big bed projects this spring!  We have planned, paced ourselves and plodded along. And, with any luck, we have arrived at a significant goal. Hurrah!

This weekend I put the border on my Facing East quilt top.  Oh my gosh... it's actually done!  I can hardly believe it!

Now the question is how to quilt it!  Hmm....

I know I wouldn't have gotten here yet if it wasn't for this event. So thank YOU for playing along.  Having a place to set public goals makes a big difference!  And, of course, your encouragement does too.  I hope those of you who were able to participate in the Big Bed Quilt-Along also had a good experience!

Let's Celebrate!

If you have met your Big Bed Quilt-Along goal, it's time to celebrate!  Please add a photo of your project either here in the link party below OR on Instagram with hashtag #BigBedQAL.  I'll draw random winners from among those who post photos now through noon (eastern time) on Thursday. 

Thanks to Superior Threads, there's some sweet icing on our quilt-along cake.  Five lucky participants will win a $51 gift certificate for a thread shopping spree.  International entries welcome.  Good luck, friends!

Updated 5/3/2018.  Congrats to our winners:  Susanna's Sunshine, Grammie Q's, Christina's Handicrafts, Chathie Bea and Emily Caroline.  I'll be in touch!
