Scrappy Sunday

I finally finished the machine embroidery on Sunday, and also managed a bit more quilting.  This scrappy Fractured string quilt was asking for a concentric quilting pattern, but I didn't feel up to circular quilting,

So I went for a more angular design, quilting concentrically about an inch apart

It look ages, but I think it's worth it.  Yellow binding then got stitched to the front, and the whole lot is now in the waiting-for-cooler-weather pile: it *almost* doesn't count as a UFO any longer!!!!
