Its time to bind my crumbler quilt, I really had a hard time finding a fabric for binding I liked on the front as much and to go with the back, I think this is it...
I was originally going to use the grey I used on the sides. My goal is to do one binding a week, maybe then I can catch up!

 Whats on the cutting table this am... look at the basket, those are the left over pieces after I cut from the strips the pieces I need, what do you see?  I see makings for a little quilt :)

 just had to share the progress and adding in those darker beiges just makes the quilt more me in mho. Love the aged look in quilts I make, I am always striving for it!  here is a tip....
I usually will put fabrics up on the design wall that I am considering using in a quilt that are questionable at first as if I think they will work or not before I start cutting them up.  this has saved me from cutting a lot of fabrics up that I wouldn't wind up using.  Mixing blues is tricky sometimes and this blue one is  still questionable to me.

funny how I always stayed away from blues before now its one of the first colors I look for when buying fabrics.  Do you have a color you rarely bought and now wish you had lots of?

Did you see the post by Marisa at Quilt Otaku?  She shared lots of links to the Tokyo quilt show.
go make a cup of tea or coffee and be prepared to spend an hour  being inspired and amazed at all those   incredible quilts.  Wow....
