New Quilting Project

I just started sewing this throw quilt this morning....and the whole front is already finished! Hurray for jelly rolls (pre-cut 2 1/2"x 44" strips)! This has been lots of fun, and super easy to do. I actually didn't even have a pattern to follow....I just grabbed a strip and started sewing. This fabric is called Moda Shangri-la and I got it 1/2 off at Fat Quarter Shop....only 1 jelly roll and then fabric for the back and binding. I'll let you know when I get it totally finished...which at the rate I'm going, might be a while. Seems I can get the quilt almost done...but putting the batting in between and quilting it...now that's where I freak out. This is about how far I have my baby quilt too. It sure would feel nice to finish something!

Beautiful quilt, Amber keep me posted with how you complete it. I need tips for quilting and binding myself. Love the snowmobile pictures too. How are you feeling these days? I miss you and everyone in Rexburg too.
