My Journey is nearly at it`s end !

Hello my friends.
My journey is nearly at it`s end but a few more days quilting yet!
So far:


Trying to get backing and wadding 
with top in place ready to pin!!
As you can see this little lady was helping,
NOT.


A lot has been quilted but still a few hours to go.


I`m finding my back and shoulders can only take
small amounts of time on this.
Plus school holidays and family due to visit.
I`ll keep on with my progress and show as
soon as complete.
I`m disappointed not to have finished this month :(
Happy Stitching,
Clare.
