Finished Top #1


On Sunday, I wrote this post about focusing on four projects for the week. Today I get to mark one of those projects off the list. I finished my Quiltville Roll Roll, Cotton Boll mystery top today! The binding is cut and ready to sew and press. And the backing fabric is right there ready to sew but I'll wait next week to do that. WooHoo.

I have to laugh at myself because I was so stressed over working on this top and nothing else that I gave myself permission to work on something else. I didn't touch any other project.

I'm excited to go back in and sew but we've been invited out to dinner and how can I turn down someone else cooking???

So far, January has been quite productive. That's a good start to the year.

Your RRCB is definitely beautiful. I think it may have been worth all the pressure you put on yourself. Now, give yourself permission to breathe and relax.

Wow, it is really stunning. Glad you were able to focus and get it finished up so fast. Now you can do something else with now guilt.

Oh Judy! Way to say on top of the clues like that!!! Absolutely amazing! Sadly, I didn't (couldn't) stay completely focused on one project like you, but without a doubt----seeing yours together will push me to jump back in to step 6.

Beautiful completion.
