I've made a start.  Here are my fabrics and some of the bits I have pieced.
Life's too short for ironing.

Such pretty colours, I love brights and patterns :)

I have just finished my quilt this afternoon :D the binding very nearly defeated me, but it's done, my first ever patchwork  8) I just hope my wobbly binding will be forgiven!!

Will photograph and send to Iminei over the weekend  :)

I can't wait to see everyone's quilt.

Yesterday I finished my top and basted it within an inch of its life.   Today, I had to go to work but if I don't go tomorrow, I'll quilt it and do the border.   :D

All the pieces are cut (and a few spares) and after a bit of swapping and checking in black & white,  I might have decided on what goes where. Now to find a nice new needle and start sewing them all together.

Just finished sewing the binding this evening - I could get used to quilts this size. It will be a few days before I get chance to send the set of photos to Iminei.

Another entry has plopped through the ether onto my virtual doormat, thank you SiT ... beautiful work!

TSP Bear is looooving this ...it makes him feel very special and important and if he's not careful he's going to start finding it hard to sit up straight, his head swelling as much as it is!

and I'm loving it too ... you are all so talented and generous to be doing this ... methinks this could have legs!

Just a week to go before the entries will be posted up and ready for votes ... roll up, roll up ....

Ooh that's gorgeous - and very well co-ordinated with the bear himself, I think.
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.
