The pins are in...

...and I am procrastinating...again!

If procrastinating were an Olympic sport, I would be a Gold medallist for sure :)

I'd like to say that now the pins are in that this Little Bluebirds quilt of mine will be finished soon....but we all know that probably will not be the case LOL. After all, my very-first-ever quilt still had pins holding the binding on for many many years after I started it. It was on our bed for many many years with the pins still in...and probably still would be to this day, except it was ruined in a flood of water from a broken pipe that swept through our house one night :) And we ALL know how long the pins were in my Farmers Daughter quilt that I finally finished a few short weeks ago.

More than once I've considered handing it over to the professional quilter, but I'm still waiting on my Gardeners Journal quilt to come home from her house...and it's been there since before Christmas! This one would be a "custom job" too...which would mean lots and lots of money for a relatively simple quilting job.

So...now it's up to me.

The pins are in...

...let the quilting begin!

The pinning is the worst part of the quilting process! Hope this one has a speedier finish.

I hope you find the enthusiasm for it and get it done. It'll be a great feeling when you do.
