Postage Stamp Quilt Update

Some how Friday became a very successful afternoon/evening for me. I started out with the goal to just baste the front, batting, and backing together, then the goal changed to a couple of lines, and then all of the sudden I had finished quilting the entire quilt! Crazy! Anyways, I decided to do diagonal lines through all of the squares and outline the 2 cents. I also when around on the borders too. To finish it, I have to get the jumbo rick-rack to go around the edge, so it's even more like a stamp (I keep on forgetting to order it), sewing it on, bind it and then it's all finished!

I'm supposed to be getting all the stuff for the Martinique quilt in the mail today... I'm so excited!
