Well, I am 'almost' done...finished... sort of... 
.JPG)
Now to back it...bind it... and top stitch it... well the backing & binding will get done...but the top stitching will be done later... I want to have it (as ready as possible) to take to our Farm Chick Glamping trip..... 
I worked on the stitched squares over the Winter and added two more squares for fun...
I have a friend who's mother has one of those quilt stitchery machine and I am toying w/the idea of just paying her to do a simple machine top stitching on the completed quilt... It's only 42 x 50, so it isn't to big and shouldn't cost a fortune... I hope!

Waahooo! my quilt arrived to it's destination, Orofino, ID.... where it will be lovingly top stitched by our very own Diana.
Her quilts are absolutely beautiful,,,, and she does incredible work....
I feel good knowing someone as special and talented as she is lending her talents and love to my quilt...
My quilt is not mine,,, it is a combination of 3 wonderful women, the designer Cindy, the stitcher (me) and the finisher, Diana....
I can hardly wait to show it off around the campfire in 8 days!
until then, I'll find some mischief to get into...

Wow, that is really nice. The quilting does really set off the squares.
And what a neat idea to make a quilt out of the squares. I may have to borrow/hi-jack your idea. Pretty please?
