"Finished is Better Than Perfect"

I heard the expression "finished is better than perfect" a couple times lately on a Facebook site and it inspired me to finish a couple projects. One is this crazy quit that I started in 2 or 3 BE (years before Emma, lol). Crazy quilts had a comeback in the 90's and it was fun to collect interesting textiles and to learn silk ribbon embroidery and play with different sitches on the machine and with different threads. I first made this small velvet-bordered one, and a vest (vests were big in the 90's and I am not sure where mine is)< The one I finally decided was "finished" is this shades of white wallhanging. I have pulled it out periodically over the last 30 years but this week it is officially FINISHED! Every seam has embellisment, lots of beads were added, border was sewn on and it is backed and finised. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

This is also the week that I deemed the Sunflower Quilt blocks from my last blog post to be FINISHED! (By the way, cakes are done, people are finished. Just saying) On to another UFO on the pile!
