Procrastination No More

I'm Finally binding the "Get Well Soon" Quilt! Yippeee!

I had put the top together so fast, had it ready to go, hand quilted half of it out, when I thought that I had forgotten to wash the RED corduroy... I then put this project on the shelf, because picking it apart, unpinning etc. was just to much for me to think about.

Then I thought about NOT using the corduroy because this corduroy was much stiffer then what I had used in the past. In past quilts I have used BIG wide soft corduroy, which makes for such a snugly blanket, it's glorious.
This was a tighter weave and the only red I could find, so I went with it.


This was a bit stiff and it hurt my fingers to hand quilt. But I was inspired by my own childhood "sick quilt" made of red corduroy, so it was a must to use on this.

As you can see above. I DID, rip out all the hand stitching, and started over machine quilting it.

I am SO HAPPY I did. It was fun to do, and since it's been washed again, Its so snuggly, my daughter was trying to sleep with it last night and I didn't even have the binding on it yet...


I'm so a Glad I did this project. Thanks Tonya, for this opportunity!
I might not have ever made it...otherwise.

I love it.
