Quilt #3 Stacked Coins

Well, here it is finally finished. Quilt #3 The Stacked Coins Quilt.
I started machine quilting it on Friday afternoon at "Sewjourn" and by Friday evening had finished it completely. It was a good start to the weekend. I had planned to have it finished on Friday so that I could work on the Irish Flower Chain Quilt for the rest of the weekend.
I quilted it about 1cm inside the seam on the coins then stippled around them on the white.
The binding was even made entirely of scraps!
I must say it is really pretty and I love the fact that a lot of my favourite fabrics are in here.
A lot of the scraps were my last bits of these fabrics. :(
I didn't do any sewing yesterday - maybe I was all sewed out from the weekend!!! But I did have to finish this order for a lovely lady in the USA today.
Christmas Stockings already - this lady is organised!!
And this pretty number has just been popped into the shop and etsy.
What quilt will I start next I wonder?

Yep, I sure do like it. I've been too busy moving about rooms trying to arrange. Once done i'll be getting back to my sewing. It's amazing how much we miss it isn't it?? Nice job!
