Update on the quilt-in-progress

Hello,  everyone.  I hope all y'all had a merry Christmas. We've been busy, of course, but some progress has been happening on the quilt.

This is the present limit of the stitching; it's a machine sewn binding with mitered corners. (Autocorrect tried to confuse that sentence. I really have to look sharp all the time.) There actually is a fair amount of these greens in the quilt panel, on the various water-oriented parts, even though none is showing at this corner. Other than the twigs in the border that is.

I found these fabrics, except the binding, at the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum in Denver last summer. They also had a really cool exhibit of a couple of kinds of quilt making. In depth coverage of the potential of the two way to work. We really enjoyed it, and also the quilt fabric shop attached. 😉

Just in time for Christmas,  I  completed a yarn bag gift. 
This was made from a Sew Can She pattern, except for quilting on the sides and some piecing. I got to use some of the cool hardware I got at the Houston Quilt Festival a couple of years ago, too. All fabrics and the foam stabilizer were from stash, because at the last minute who has time to shop?
