Review of my 2020 Quilting, Knitting and Reading 

Quilting

The only thing needed on this quilt was to hand sew the binding, so I finally got that done and my husband hung it up in our living room.

This quilt top had been stuck for ~5 years, so I finally managed to get it done. Next month I'll send it to my fabulous machine quilter.
