The Relay For Life Quilt is FINISHED :D

I am super excited today :)  I ran over half of my miles this morning :)  It was a year ago, the last time I was running regularly.  The last run was at the Utah Valley 1/2 Marathon with my two sister in laws.  I had to pull out at mile 9 with severe ITBS :p  I also ended up with a stress fracture in my right foot :ppppp  I couldn't do any activity for nearly 2 months.  This half marathon was supposed to be my debut run after being hit by a car the previous October (2010).  I was pretty devastated.  I cried a lot.  By the time I could get out and move again, I was pretty much too down on myself to get myself going again.  Anyway, fast forward to now, I am back in physical therapy and working on the running thing and the weight loss thing.  Not being able to run has wreaked havoc on my weight management.  So, long story short, I am happy to be running and losing weight again :)  Now for the quilt stuff...
After lunch today, I pieced the back for the quilt, basted it, quilted it and then hand stitched the binding on :)  (this process was interrupted several times with dinner, a birthday party and a few other things)  The photo shoot was kinda funny because the sun was setting and my boys can't hold still :D

The boy's weren't much help, so I tried the mail box :)   It seems to hold a bit more still!

Lastly, I decided to take a few inside of the house for good measure :)

I did an all over stipple quilting.  My eyes are closing as I type.  I think I am pooped out!  I'm hoping to get Ashley's All Fenced in basted and quilted tomorrow.  She is away camping with our church until Friday at noon.  It will probably be my last chance to quilt it before her birthday in early July.

I am going to be linking this up with Elizabeth and SHOW OFF FRIDAY over at a Pieceful Life :), Sew & Tell Friday with AmyLouWho and Sarah over at The Fabric Addict for CAN I GET A WHOOP WHOOP???
