Once the quilt back was done, it was time to baste.  Top, batting, and back all together.  I baste with safety pins and I actually ran out while pinning.

I was surprised how sharp the new ones are!  It was just the right task because I got caught in the rain last week on my bicycle ride home.  The damp was just enough to push me into a cold.  I have been moving rather slow this week.  But the quilt is all basted!  Quilting happened next.  I will show a picture tomorrow.  I might have all the quilting done on Friday.  That would be exciting.
