More Panda Progress

I got sidetracked painting my front door, but I have finally worked on my panda quilt some more.  The bamboo pieces and leaves are not sewn on yet, but you can see the quilt is moving along.

Panda Progress

This week I am finally doing some quilting.  I stitched the pandas to the background fabric and put the sashing around them.  The border fabric is not sewn yet.  I barely had enough border fabric.  This was a kit and I really hate it when they barely give you enough fabric to cut out what you need to cut out.  I had to cut the borders about 1/4 inch thinner than the instructions. 
Once I have the borders sewn onto the quilt I will be appliqueing bamboo in various places on the quilt top.
