It’s Ghost Party SAL Week 6 and it’s time to finish your quilts! Let’s Baste, Quilt, Bind, and love our quilts!
Week 6
We are at the end! Week 6. Can you believe it? We are finishing our Ghost Party Quilts this week. Fingers crossed. Again progress is progress. So if you aren’t done, no worries. Just keep making a little progress each week.
I find I really love to make a project during the season it will be used for. And if I don’t finish it completely I have a whole year to make it happen to use the following years season.
Make a quilt backing. Baste the quilt to the batting and backing and then quilt it. Finally trim and bind your Ghost Party Quilt.
Here are a few links to helpful videos for finishing your quilt.
