May's finish and my 8th for this year

This wallhanging started it 's life 7 years ago as a rowXrow round robin in the craft forum.  I made the first row - log cabins and then sent it around Australia for 8 other wonderful ladies to make a row for it. The rows sat in a box for quite a few years as i tried to work out how best to sew them together.  2 years ago I finally bit the bullet and sewed 6 of the rows together, the other three are waiting to be made into smaller projects.

I quilted it last month and finally finished hand sewing the binding on a few weeks ago.....

 
Very excited to have one of the tops that have been waiting to be finished done.....
 
Now what UFO to tackle now....

Great finish! I love the colors and the border works so well with the blocks. I've done a few Row Robins and have enjoyed them alot.
