It still needs to get trimmed (something about the cat was napping comfortably on half of the cutting mat last night and I didn't want to disturb him!). I did make the binding (he let me cut various strips of fabric on half of the mat) and have it pressed and ready to attach once it is all trimmed up. I'm thinking I might get to that today or tomorrow. I see hand stitching binding in my future! This 90x90 quilt will take a while - that is 360 inches of binding to stitch as well as a label. I think I might write the label with the permanent pen and then go over it with some embroidery so it won't fade when it is washed.
I already informed Ms. Quilt Stealer that this is not going on her bed. She is agreeing to disagree at this point.

It is absolutely beautiful Dab;)) I especially like that lighter strip in the center setting the others off--great job! Hugs, Julierose
Very pretty! Bet she won't keep it very long! LOL
Oh yes--kitty help--they can be controlling in the sewing area--my one cat loved the cutting mat too--silly cats!!

It's beautiful, Deb! I didn't realize it was so big. I completely understand why your girl would like to claim it! Congratulations on getting the quilting done.
