I have been busy cutting and sewing my BOM for 'Burning the midnight oil'. I have been chain piecing it so I'm about halfway through it all.
Will post a pic when I have got them done.
News from my local quilt shop, says that so far, they have 42 quilts finished and are still counting. A lot still need to be finished off, as in bindings sewn down or lables added.
The shop is hopping to have about 70 quilts befor the 28th which is the deadline.

Today I went down to my local quilt shop, where they are having a 'quiltin bee' to try and get quilts finished for the fire victums over in Oz. I was unable to help this weekend as my MS is having a field day with my body, but it was great to see some of the quilts I had given or made for the fire quilts finished or having the bindings being put on.
I was told yesterday, the 14th, there were 38 people there helping out in one way or another, with another 12-15 people there today, the 15th, helping out.
All the quilts have to be finished and packed up befor the end of this month, when I know the total I will post it here.

This quilt has now been quilted and will soon be on it's way to Oz. This photo does not show the quilting as I have yet to get a photo of it quilted, but the person who quilted it for us did a very good job. Just by looking at the quilt she could tell what had happened to it, and found a small bit of invisible thread that was the reason why it had shrank.
