We’re up to row 4 of the Ryan Gosling Quilt Along and as of today, I am getting married in exactly 4 weeks! How the time has flown! I’m so incredibly excited and also nervous about how on earth I’m going to get everything done in time. There’s so much to buy for our new house and I wish I could be stocking up on Kona Solids too! You’ll all have to do it for me and show me your creations so I can live vicariously through you. There will be no new fabric for me for a decent while yet unfortunately. (Although with a wedding, honeymoon in Fiji and a new house to move into, I really can’t complain!) But back to Ryan Gosling. This week you are sewing Row 4.

Only one more row to go! It’s time to start thinking about what you would like to do for your backing. I like to plan my backings as I near the end of my quilt tops, so that by the time I’m ready to sew the backing I have a firm plan in mind. Don’t be afraid to try something new…
Happy Sewing!
