Rainbow Hand Quilting - The First Two Borders

I've been putting in some quilting time every night and am now about 50% of the way done with borders one and two.  I think I'm going to have to revise my estimated finish date again.  I must be putting in more quilting than usual...

The first border is done on the bottom in the hoop.

I've been using tape to mark the line borders.  I have one set for the side borders and one for the top and bottom borders because they are different widths.

I won a giveaway last week, and was pleasantly surprised to find my prize waiting in my mailbox when I got back in to town last night.

But, despite my excitement, I managed to leave the fabric in it's package overnight and used it as a reward to get myself out of bed early this morning.  Mission accomplished!

    You're moving right along! It's it an awesome feeling to move that hoop, knowing that you're getting closer to a finish. ;-) What a fabulous quilt it's going to be. And congratulations on the win!

    You are working fast! It's going to be so cool when it's done. And great self-control - I would have had to open that parcel.
