I ended January quilting one more comfort quilt.  There are actually 4 of these. A king size top was donated to our group. It wouldn't fit my frame and we don't donate that size. So I took out a few seams to make the 4. The pattern is a variation of Indian Hatchett. It's  all in the placement of color. We don't have a clue who pieced it. They did a nice job. 

I'd forgotten the back barely fit on 1 1/2 widths. I did add extra as I wasn't in the mood to play chicken. As it turned out the end of the quilt came past the seam by 1/4"  maybe 1/2". Dang. What to do? What to do?

I opted to quilt it short. And trim the edge off. Of course I haven't done that yet.  I'll plan to discuss it on Tuesday with whoever binds it. 

I must remember to baste a temporary strip at the top. I am using the red snappers now for loading quilts and I can't as easily start as close to the top of the available back. 

 Happy quilting
