Alert Mr. Ripley!

Bed1 Because, Believe It or Not, I've FINISHED the binding on the Red Monster!  I finished it in a week - yay me!  I never thought that was possible.  I guess the proper motivation makes all the difference!



Here's a shot of it temporarily lounging on my king size bed (excuse the mess) - this sucker is huge and heavy.  I can't remember the last time I made a quilt this big.  Whew - so glad it's done in plenty of time.  I can even take it to retreat with me and display it on my bed before it goes to its new owner!



Bed2 We're leaving for retreat in 2 days - can't wait!!!!
