Light at the end of the electronic tunnel?

Woo Hoo! Best Buy just called, they may have my computer fixed.....maybe by tomorrow. If not probably Tuesday. Boy, DH and I have been going through computer withdrawal big time! Say some prayers Pleez.
I just found this blog and she is having a giveaway. I just had to sign up since I feel like our ship is coming in and who knows, lady luck may be riding on my shoulder now.

For another project that is finished, I did finally get the D9P done for PGS#3. But I did run into trouble a couple of times while placing the binding on.
*Besides the previous post of being short 3", I actually found a couple of 5" squares in my scrap basket while getting some scraps to my Mom to cut up. (She's the best! She came North for 5-6 weeks and didn't bring her sewing machine. So she asked me if I had any scraps I wanted cut up. VBG here! Well, One of my favorite mottos is - "Ask and Ye shall receive". 8~) So a very Lucky day for me times 2, I found more of the navy blue binding fabric to finish the binding, besides getting some of my scraps more organized.)

I had only about 12" left to hand sew the binding so it would be finished and drats!
*While snipping a thread, I cut the folded edge of the binding. Courtesy of my hand coordination with my ongoing neck and back problem of a herniated disc pinching my spinal cord (its affecting my extremities). Thank G-- I had enough of the navy binding to fix that and redo it with a 2" patch. Anyhow, a long story short.... TaDa! It's done. Hallelujah and heartfelt Amen.



Next, Hummm..... finish cross stitching my first Biscornu or work on the Patience Corners - humpjumper I started this past spring.



Happy Stitchin,
Jane


PS: While posting PGS#3's quilt, I took photo's of PGD#1's quilt too with her favorite block of the lion family. This quilt was finiished several years ago, BB.(before Blogging)
