Binding a UFO Project

 Here's another UFO project I pulled from the top shelf during my slow time.  All this quilt needs is some binding, a hanging sleeve, and a label.  I had even sewed down part of the binding before previously putting it away.

 I tried out my new Tim Holtz snips I received in my last Quilty Box!  They are super sharp and fun to use.

Disclaimer:  These scissors were given to me by Quilty Box at no cost to me.  Thank you, Quilty Box

 Whilst sewing the binding down, I noticed this pretty quilting motif on the back of my quilt.  It's like a swirly flower.  I like the variegated thread I used for the quilting, too.  I wonder what it was?  I don't seem to have a record of what I used to make this quilt.

 Gotta have the Clover Wonder Clips for hand stitching the binding down.  It saves me from hand fatigue.

 Here you can see part of the quilt top.  It looks like I had fun trying out some new quilting motifs on this project.

 Another view of the quilting on the back side.  The back of this quilt is pieced scraps, some leftover fabric from the quilt top, and some that coordinates.  I'll show the whole quilt, front and back, when I'm finished.

 More binding.  

And more ~ stitch, stitch, stitch!  The binding is made from a cute pansy print fabric.

My schedule has filled up, but I hope I can finish this quilt off soon and not put it back up on the shelf.  It would be nice to put a dent in the UFO's.  Do you have many unfinished projects?  What do you need to work on?  Leave a comment below.

What's Inside the November 2019 Quilty Box?

 Ho Ho HOOOO!  Look what Santa brought!  It's the November 2019 Quilty Box.  Let's take a peek inside, shall we?

Disclaimer:  The contents of this subscription box were given to me by Quilty Box at no cost to me.

 First up is the Far Far Away II fabric bundle by Heather Ross for Windham Fabrics.

 When I opened this package, the first thing I saw was Rapunzel!  How adorable is that?  

 And then Sleeping Beauty, my favorite fairy tale.

 The Owl and the Pussycat, I believe?  I don't know this story very well, but it has a kitty in it so it must be good.  Oh kitty!

 These fabrics are enchanting.  Here they are all fanned out.  Do you see the paper hats?  

 Inside this month's Bundles of Inspiration magazine you can read an interview with Heather Ross, and make four different quilt patterns.  How to choose???

 Every month, they have a Subscriber Spotlight feature.  Look, it's me!  Thanks, Quilty Box.  That was fun.

 This month you also get a new pair of snips by Tim Holtz.  I can always use more scissors.

 A package of beautiful Clover Golden Eye embroidery needles.

And a spool of Aurifil thread in a hot pink color.  Maybe this thread will keep me warm on a chilly day?
