Two Block Quilted

The next stage in the Two Block Quilt. I used 505 spray to adhere the backing and quilt top to the wadding and it held fine as I machine quilted. Decided not to be over ambitious and have done straight quilting in squares - no ruching or excess fabric anywhere so I'm very pleased. As I was quliting in the ditch, I was going to try the blind hem foot as a guide, but changed my mind and went with the walking foot. Managed to stay in the ditch most of the time and where I didn't it isn't noticeable.

Here's a closer view.

Next and final stage is applying the binding - need to cut the 2 inch strips and then attempt mitreing (is that how you spell it?)
