Friends BOF Finish

Description

So first, you know I needed batting.  I had the Friends BOF wall hanging and I have Pat's Quilt to finish, both have backing fabric but I need that batting.  It just so happens that Joann's had some fabulous coupons: 50% off one regular priced item and 20% off total purchase price.

I found a roll of my beloved all natural cotton batting for $14.99 a yard and got 3 yards for a mere $22.00.  There was also this package that had a piece of 35" x 45" cotton batting in it that was already 50% off so I picked that one up for $5.00.  Happy camper is what I was and still am!

Last night I put the backing on and then put the binding on with the possessed machine...which is strangely being very good to me. I think it's all the talk of replacing it with a very expensive Bernina that has it working.  I haven't even had to perform the incantation (really it is a slew of profanities loudly directed at the evil thing) in order for the machine to cooperate!  I can say for certain that the machine prefers expensive threads.  Fine, as long as it works.  And work it did!

Not the best picture, and I will have to take a better one later.  Wendy, over at Sugarlane Designs, who created the pattern for this loves mine so much she said, "SO, time to design another one?"  You bet I said YES PLEASE!
