The Ladies Are Done

The Ladies Diary Quilt is FINALLY done!

I started it in June 2013 after falling in love with the fabric and design.
By September 2013 I had the top all put together.


It was quilted (by Quilted Works) in October 2013.


And here it is May 2015 and I finally completed the binding.
I'm so excited to get this sweet quilt TOTALLY finished!

I needed a fence high enough to accommodate this big quilt, so we hung it on a baseball field fence.


I love everything about it!




A little help from the hubby...


...who was trying to make shadow birds on my quilt.
Once a little boy, always a little boy. Love him!


I can now check this off my nonexistent list of things that need to be done. Yay!

  8. I remember this pretty quilt ! I also remember thinking it was so you.....but I see Ron recognized that it wasn't. It needed something just a little creepy in it (because you like creepy things) so he must have been trying to put a creepy blackbird in it ! Way to help your wife out RON !
