I decided to go ahead and put the borders on the second D4P quilt today instead of next week. I wanted to get it off the design wall so I could lay out another top and I don't know why but this is the part I hate about quilting. I hate to put the borders on quilts. It is definitely my least favorite thing to do....Well, it is now finished and ready for quilting! I've got the backing ready for it and the binding already cut. I've got to get some batting and I'll put it on the machine this week!
Now, I'm ready to turn on the TV and watch some of the shows I've recorded on my DVR this week. I'll be sewing the binding on this quilt while relaxing in front of the TV. I'll show you a glimpse of the quilt just to spark your interest. This is one of the prettiest quilts I have ever seen. My friend quilted this for me and she did a wonderful job. We bartered a little and I did some work for her for the quilting....I am so thrilled to be putting the binding on this one. I'll be linking up with Kathy over at Kathy's Quilts for Slow Stitch Sunday.

Oh, I love it Linda, and the one that you're binding looks gorgeous. Can't wait to see it completed. :) xo

Oh, now I want to see the whole thing! The one you just added borders to is wonderful. I have some quilts I HATE doing borders so much, the top goes away for a while until I can face it. Right now, one has been lost for a year. I bought the fabric, finally, and haven't been able to find the top!
Your second D4P quilt is turning out nicely, I love all those colors with the white. I hate putting on the borders of a quilt too. Probably my least favorite thing.
