Getting there

 I am making progress on the anniversary quilt.  I hope to finish the quilting tomorrow and that gives me 5 days to bind it.

The Golden Threads paper managed to stay put just enough.  I had a hiccup with my water soluble thread shredding but, luckily, I had purchased a new spool probably 5 years ago and opening that factory sealed spool fixed the issues.  Trimming the high loft batt from the trapunto seems to have messed up my thumb but I am limping along with that, ice packs and ibuprofen.  

I used Zoom meetings with the quilt guild to remove any of the remaining paper with tweezers.  Still hoping to meet my deadline on 9/18.

Progress photos--of course Sherman had to get in on it.
