FMQ: The Slacker Edition

The amount that I can sew has recently been greatly reduced and so the quilt buster theme for this past month has been perfect.  I have a couple of things that I really need to get done before Christmas.  One of those would be the Blogger's BOM quilt.  It's been hanging over my head for a while now and I want to be done with it. 

I had 2 designs that I still wanted to try and I knew I could finish up the quilting with them.  I started with the Matrix around the edges leftover in the center of the quilt.  I like this design a lot and plan to use it again, but I quickly found out why it's better to use this on the edge of the quilt and not the way I did it.  I have SO many threads to hide now and I didn't even close the grid.  I did one set of wiggly lines all the way around about 2" apart from each other and decided to just keep it that way.  I liked the way it looked and to be honest I was running out of time. 

Today I quilted the Spiral Ornaments.  Leah quilted hers close together, but I left space between them.  While I'm confessing things I may as well tell you I knew it would take less time if I didn't sit them on top of each other.  I know, I know - I was being lazy, but I really had such a short time to quilt.  I wanted to make sure I could get it done, and as luck would have it, I like how it looks.  It reminds me of spiral garland.

I'm hoping to get the binding on the quilt tomorrow, and finish it up quickly.
