Now, to find and add the binding. Did I mention this is the gift we are giving at the folk's 50th Anniversary this Saturday, after school is out, after we drive 1,500 miles? I'm glad it's completed this far!
So, my name is like this, Gwen is my given name, and growing up it was family that called me that. But about Jr. High, the name Pokey was what I became known as. ( Slow to get the jokes, slow to complete the work, but I call that perfectionism! or, procrastination....) When I'm at work, most people there call me Gwen (or Mrs. Davis, I'm a teacher.) BUT, my honey calls me Pokey. When I got married, our Pastor asked, "Pokey, do you take this man..." At church, I'm Pokey. My friends call me Pokey. As a matter of fact, Pokey Davis is a registered 'alias' at my bank, because occasionally people will write it on checks made out to me-! You get to choose where you want to fit. I answer to any. I wanted folks to know, the name 'Pokey' wasn't made up just for blogging!

ReplyDeleteVery pretty..........congrats on the 'near finish'.......you'll make it !
ReplyDeleteAnd the quilt has an aged look to it, like IT could be 50 years old. Can't wait to see it all washed, dried, and crinkly !
What batting do you use, by the by?
So are you going to hand sew the binding on the long car trip?
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful!
Great job! I can't imagine doing all that work and then giving it away. Even if it was for my parents, that would be so very hard. It is beautiful!
