I did it! I finally finished my green and purple star swap quilt this week! I put the binding on (definitely not my best binding job ever, but I got to play with invisible thread!) and washed it, and now it is on the bed with my daughter sleeping soundly under it for the second night in a row! I've not taken a photo yet, but I'll be getting one soon and I'll let you know when I post it!
When I finished it and laid it out on the floor, my DD oohed and aahed over it. I asked her if she knew who the quilt belonged to, and she said, "Yes mommy, it belongs to a sick kid in the hospital!" When I told her that this one wasn't going to the hospital, it was all hers, she said, "Ooh, thank you mommy! Thank you for making me this quilt!"
Gotta love her!
