I just felt I had to

I had all kinds of other things that I should have been doing, but I was trying to organize my sewing space and got distracted by a pile of charm squares.  A very quick and easy top was put together yesterday, and I quilted and bound it today.  Success!

Now, to try and get back to making some headway in my sewing space...

Hope you're having a good summer, with lots of fun and some sewing thrown in!

Happy quilting!

    That looks amazing! But I do know about the sewing space dilema. Getting sidetracked is the easiest thing to do.

    visiting from finish it up friday. Did you use a stencil for the quilting? It is amazing. Or is there a tutorial somewhere on how to do that pattern as FMQ?
