My Quilt

I really really didn't want to post anything that wasn't finished. But I also don't want to go a month without posting anything. This actually isn't the project that I'm focusing on right now, but since it's a gift, I'm not going to post my main project until it is done. Follow that?

So, here's the quilt I started for my bedroom almost a year ago. Sheesh. But I put it away when someone came to stay and the sewing/guest room became a guest room minus the sewing slash. And then it just kind of stayed put away. And then it got buried deeper. But I pulled out the sewing machine to piece together two other quilts, and wanted to finish this one off before I put the sewing machine away again.

Long story short, I finished piecing it this morning.

This is a detail picture of the fabrics. The squares are 2"x2"


And this is the whole quilt. It's really hard to get a picture of such a giant quilt, even standing on a table. So part of it is not in the picture, and you get the added bonus of the corner of my coffee table. :)



And, back to sitting it will go while I finish hand quilting the two other pieces I'm working on.
