A glimpse

OK, so I can't fob you off with posts about shopping sprees and cross-stitch magazines, can I? I had better show you that I am working on the quilt! Just a little bit more of the binding left to stitch and I'll be done! Dare I promise pictures tomorrow? Well, maybe....
With the end in sight, I just had to start on that handbag, right? I have quilted the main fabric with some thick batting, just criss crossing between the large dots, and I have started adding pattern to some of the dots. I have just done the pink ones so far, and I'll also do the green ones, but I think I might leave the rest unquilted. Once the quilting is done I'll start on the really fun part: the actual construction of the bag, but not until tomorrow - I have binding to stitch and films to watch...

I love the quilting in the big dots - my favourite style. This is going to be some gorgeous handbag!
