I love your self portrait!
I too am binding, I made scrappy binding for the crazy quilt I made, inspired by your kitchen sink quilt. I am hand sewing, so it is taking ages, but what else would I be doing....housework? ha ha

Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting on my festival quilt. I have lurked on your blog before. I love your use of colour and freedom to just let your fabric do the talking -- as in what kind of improv design it might like to be in. Great self-portrait!
