4th finish for the week

Wow.......another one off my list! After arriving home this morning @ 430am and going to bed, only to be woken @ 9am with Hershey's kisses, I went to the sewing room. I took scraps of batting and zigzaged them together to be big enough for the Quilts 4 Kids quilt. Pinned it all together and then quilted it up, and then took the left over binding from the yellow one and got it all bound too. Woo Hoo. Here is this weeks pile with the newest one on the top.
I have two more loads of laundry to wash, then these are getting washed too, so they can do their crinkle magic. :D
Yesterday in between other stuff I managed to get 14 more pairs of blue jeans de-boned. Plus I think I did 12 the night before too. One whole stack is now gone, well at least off that shelf, now it is just a pile of usable blue jean fabric in bits and pieces.Only 2 more big stacks to go. I will be using some of it to bind those 5 dog beds that are calling my name.
Now do I bind those dog beds too, or go back to piecing for awhile so I don't get burnt out on binding and finishing too?
While I think on that for awhile, I am going to piddle with my Dear Jane blocks that I was working on during break and lunchtime this week, see if I can get a few of them finished too. Wish me luck on these.

Quite a stack for the week. A few Dear Janes sounds like just the way to top it off.

Busy you! A great pile of finishes. I hope you switched to some restful piecing to mix it up a bit. Great job.
