I had high hopes to finish both the 2008 Swap Top, a pillow case and quilt a top for my sister. Given the excitement this week 2 out of 3 is not bad. I ran out of steam before the pillow case was done. Tomorrow I’ll show the swap top.
Friday I hit the LQS Bolt Sale looking for backings. I came home with backings for 2+. I found a wide backing for my Kansas Troubles 4-patch Stacked Posies which is wider than I really need, but the price was right. I ended up with 2/3 yards more than I really needed since that’s what was left on the bolt. The second piece is for the floral quilt top that I finished a few weeks ago.
For my reporting, I’ve converted the yardage to 40″ equivalent.

I’d say you did great considering your excitement. I had to look back to see waht it was. Ouch, not a good thing, but glad it didn’t hurt and that it wasn’t too bad. I am a member of that club too. Can’t wait to see your finished tops.
