I wanted to buy some cauliflower to make cauliflower and cheese soup but Ray was not hungry so I put it off until tomorrow. That thwarted I started to sew on the quilt. I got the last two rows of squares joined together and the rows added to each other. And I did take a photo. I have difficulty sewing a straight line. Are there any tips about that. I had to do some of the sewing over but that isn't unusual. So essentially it is done but for another two straight rows of brown and maybe a bit of a border but I am not sure about that.
There is a bit of a crease in the photo , that is where I had left in a couple of pins which I found later.
There my day's work. It looks okay I think. Still need to find some batting and backing. I want to use what I have here instead of buying more fabric. It is difficult to make a quilt without buying the backing and borders- seems there is never enough in the house or it isn't the right fabric.
So this is my second blog of the day and I am signing off. Good night Mrs. Calabash wherever you are.

LOVE your quilt ~ beautiful colors & love how you scattered just a few animals on it!
l always use my 1/4-inch foot-with needle adjusted to a 1/4in stitch (not A-feed foot) and with narrow strips sometimes, l have to starch/iron so they stay where l want to stitch them ..:)
Personally, l can't see where you need any tips ~ all your quilts are perfect! Happy stitchin'~Patti
