are you ready for this?

seriously ready? because it's going to be a shock!



guess what i did tonight???







i........












QUILTED!!!! yes, you read that right! with my Christmas cards all completed, i can finally get some quilting of my own done. and good thing too since i have 3 Christmas projects i haven't even started yet lol!

this is another Moda Chocolat charm square quilt(the border is their Roman Holiday line). i did something different this time, i actually measured the quilt before putting the borders on. i am famous for full borders(as a long-armer i should know better lol!) and i was surprised(really i was) at how easy it was. in my mind, it's more trouble to cut a border sew it on that have to trim the ends than measuring before hand.

so this is done. no, it's not a Christmas present. i have no idea where or what i will do with this since i made another charm square quilt last month for the wall above our bed. i haven't machine quilted that one yet either lol!!
