Binding & bags

I'm very excited because the "cruise quilt" is back from the quilter.  Becki is the young woman who quilted this for me, and it's very pretty.  The dark blue binding is attached and today I'll begin the hand stitching.
 

When she and I discussed the quilting it was determined that this one needed a more dense stitching design.  This is more of a display type of quilt instead of a cuddle-up-on-couch type of quilt.  The thread is a subtle variegated thread with the yellows, pinks, blues in the quilt.

That last long zipper has been sewn into the Sew Together bag. The only thing left to do is to trim up those handle ends, and attach the small pieces at the ends that loop the handle onto the bottom of the bag.  This one is so close to being finished.
