Cat's out of the bag!

So I've impressed my boss's wife who didn't know I quilted and she's asked me to make a baby quilt for the local orthodontist whose wife just had their first baby this week. It's a little stressful for me not to be sewing along at my own pace for my own enjoyment, but I said I'd do it. So Thursday night saw this progression (pretty good for one evening's work, I think!)



My husband thought we should eat out tonight and I didn't want to be rude and argue with him, so after we got home, Friday night saw the white borders added and the rows put together.



I've hesitated between thinking I need to add one more row of blocks and thinking I can get by with adding some nice borders. I really don't want to dig through my stash for more pink strips!



Tomorrow I think I'll hit JoAnn's again with my 20% off my entire purchase coupon (get it online @ JoAnn.com) and pick up something for the border and backing. And who knows what else I might find! (Didn't someone once say you have to spend money to save money? Or was that me?!!)
