I made the 4 patches for this Christmas quilt out of mostly left over binding pieces as my bin was overflowing.
I made it a couple of months ago at least but just quilted it over the weekend. I used a king tut thread I love that is a variegated red/green and gold and looks great on just about any Christmas project.
I am currently working on the binding in the evening and have about half of the binding done now. I like the handwork while watching TV but enjoy it much more in the winter when you can snuggle under the quilt at the same time.
I did one customer quilt yesterday and will do another today after a couple of errands. The next two customer quilts are small so that is a nice change of pace after the huge one I did last week.

Hi Kathie,
I like this quilt. I often do the same thing with my leftover binding, but that pesky crease sometimes is hard to get rid of. Funny though that I next think darn I've used up all the fabrics in the top and have nothing to blend in for the binding. Oh well, there is always something else that will work. My binding projects always call out to my cats. It's always warmer in Mom's lap...no you don't need to have more room to work do you...I'm so comfortable in this spot.
