I have wrestled with an alligator...

I've tussled with a whale...

OK, well, maybe not - but that is a quote I always think of when a quilt starts to get big enough to feel like it has a life of its own.

The Tokyo Subway blocks have been wrestled beneath the sewing machine needle... and are finally a finished quilt top! 

This is so exciting because it means two things... 

One: I've made progress!  

Two: my sleepout floor was finally clear so I could do some basting, and have basted up the Constellation Quilt - all ready for quilting.  Woohoo!! 

Double progress!!
