I quilted my Trail Mix quilt this month:
Can you see the join in the back?
This piece was a long skinny bit of fabric I had left over after using it for the backing of two other quilts. I found instructions on piecing a quilt back with a diagonal seam here and here, which gave me a piece just big enough for this one.
Trail Mix was my selected project to Work On Or Finish (WOOF) for April.
As you might be able to see, I have machined on the binding, which I assembled from various bits of left-overs of binding from other quilts:
But I haven't begun to hand-stitch it down on the back. The events I mentioned in my last post have meant that for the last six days family issues have consumed all my time. Finishing it won't take me long once I get some stitching time.

This is such a beautiful quilt--nice work Vireya--maybe some hand stitching will help you to relax a bit...hugs julierose
This is a gorgeous quilt. The quilting is great and the binding is perfect.
I love your Trail Mix! It's beautiful. Stitching the binding will hopefully be relaxing. Something that my therapist has taught me to do is a mindful breathing meditation. It works for me.
Such a brilliant quilt. The back seam is very well hidden, a great technique.
Great job with your quilt... I love it. Happy binding when you can get to it...

You have stitched a beautiful quilt.
That's an awesome finish Vireya... well done.
Thanks for joining in the WOOFA challenge too...xox
Trail mix looks great. Fabulous quilting ... no I don’t see the join.
It’s turned out so well. Good on you for quilting it yourself. You are a better woman than me.
It's an interesting blanket. Different residues of the substances are used. I'm thinking of your father, I hope he's not in pain.
