Thanks for the prayers and an update on daughter's quilt

I just wanted to thank everyone who left such kind comments on my last post.  My surgery went well and I am slowly getting back to normal.  Still in a lot of pain, but the med's are helping, lol. 

I wanted to show you what I got finished before my surgery.  I was able to put the quilt top together in one day.  Nicole was so excited when I showed it to her.  We decided that since I will be making her a color coordinated bed quilt next time, this quilt will just be a throw size.  So I cut down the number of squares I orginally needed from 180 to 140. 

I am now ready to attach the border.  I went to Joann's on Sunday (and stood in the cutting line for an hour!).  I picked out a white calico with white stars for the border & binding and some pink flannel for the backing.  I also picked up the batting for 50% off.  I can't wait to finish it.

I don't have a photo, but I did finish binding my lap quilt while resting on the couch yesterday.  It looks great and I am so proud of myself for finishing it.  I am so bad at leaving projects unfinished.  So this is a biggy for me, lol.

Have a great weekend :)
