Progress on both the GB and t-shirt quilts

I finished the machine quilting on the Gee's Bend piece. I was thinking about adding some hand quilting, but does it really need it? I know where the scraps are from making this. I hope I have enough big enough pieces for the binding.
I have the t-shirt quilt two thirds pin basted. I will probably finish tonight while I watch football. I dug thru my quilting threads and I have plenty of the right colors so it is full steam ahead! The one thing I don't have is dark purple fabric for the binding.

    You can always add some hand quilting for a little decoration later to that quilt. It would be a good project when you want to just sit.

    I think you could add hand quilting but it might take away focus from the signatures. Working from home is working great for you!

    Your Gee's Bend quilt is still a favorite of mine. Every glimpse is a joy. Congrats on getting the machine quilting done. And on your progress with the t-shirt quilt, too.

    This is such a fun piece. I think it would look good with some red stitched hand quilting. I love all the straight lines.
