Done!
I finished binding my quilt for the Doll Quilt Swap this morning, and it's in the wash being quiltified right now! I can't wait to see how it looks in all it's wrinkly goodness.
Last night as I was packing a couple boxes, as a break from the quilt binding, I decided that I would not start piecing any more little quilts for now. I've plenty to finish quilting and binding. And I need to finish them! What fun is it to have quilt tops folded up in plastic bins for no one to see? Besides, there's not a very big sense of accomplishment in that either.
This morning, while Connor is off at VBS with Grandma, I tried yet another zucchini bread recipe. It's good, but I'm still looking for that ONE zucchini bread recipe. One of my husband's former students, who graduated a couple years ago, made what I remember to be the best stuff. But I felt weird emailing her parents (who were the booster presidents) and asking for it. Besides, I figured even if they meant well, it would end up being an unanswered request. So I have about 4 or 5 ok to good recipes under my belt. Anyone want to share their zucchini bread recipe?
Edited to add
I was so eager to get my quilt washed that I completely forgot about the label. THEN I'll be done. Here's the final sneak peak of the back. I couldn't decide what to do with the back other that use up the rest of those strips, so I went with white over all. I think it's a good compliment with all the different fabrics and how busy the front is.
