A Finish and an Almost Finish

I've finished my guild challenge quilt.  I finished the binding this morning, then stitched the buttons on.  This is a Black & White Plus One challenge.

I also did the machine quilting on the board game quilt.  I added the last gold star (hand stitched) after I did the machine quilting.

A while back I found this great fabric for the back of this board game quilt.  Unfortunately, I only have enough for one of the board game quilts (there are 5 more waiting to be basted and quilted).

Isn't that great fabric, with all of the different board games on the fabric?  Now I need to make the binding for this quilt. 

Both of these are for my guilds quilt show.

If you will be in the western Chicago area March 14-15, 2020, please consider coming to the Pride of the Prairie Quilt Show.  I'll have some of my vintage sewing machines at the show.  Our show always has over 300 quilts, so lots of eye candy!  We also have 'Strip Search' (our fabric booth), raffle baskets, a raffle quilt, bake sale, VENDORS!, Magazines, Patterns & Books for sale, and a Silent Auction. We'll be at Richland Grade School, 1919 Caton Farm Road, Crest Hill, IL.

    Your challenge quilt turned out lovely! Are there prizes to be won? In any case, I'll keep my fingers crossed. The board game quilt is brilliant too as is its backing. Will you sell them when they are all finished?

    I just love that Singer block - made for a great challenge piece. Super fabric to back a 'game' quilt.

    You could have more of that game fabric made at spoonflower. And since it's custom you could have the colors changed to match the other quilts. An option to consider.
