Adding the binding is always such fun, probably because I know my new quilt is almost finished and I get to hold it a bit longer while I hand sew down the binding.
When I make a quilt I always make a page for my quilt journal, this one was such fun. I used fabric scraps to make my bunting. The stickers were the perfect colour to match the fabric. Inside the page I add a few pieces of fabric and I write about the quilt and include a few photos. Its always fun to look back on.
Now my quilt is finished except for the label, I decided to stitch one and add a few flowers so as soon as thats done I can sew it on the back and show you.
I love this quilt, now its time to move on and start thinking about my next project.
What is your favourite part of the quilt making process? I'd love to hear about it.

I love this quilt - it's refreshing! I love sewing down the binding but I'm not sure I can explain why. :-)
Love your quilt, so fresh looking. I enjoy the binding process cause I know that's the finish line.
That is so pretty Leanne... I think I love looking for the pattern and drooling over all the pictures, wishing I had more time..

Lovely spring quilt...sugar flower is so pretty.
Your quilt is really beautiful, lovely pretty colours. I think I like hand stitching the binding too, it's exciting knowing it will soon be finished!
Those colours are so pretty and happy. I haven't made a journal page for ages but will do one when I finish down in the garden :)
Fantastic quilt!
