Quilted!

The holiday project is complete.   The wonky-block, make-it-up-as-I-go-along quilt is finished.  Quilted and bound and amply covering the double bed.  I'm just waiting for a sunny day to wash and dry it to snuggly it up a bit.

 Today's little hang on the line was a staged photo opportunity.  Seeing it like this makes me feel a bit pleased (it looks like I invisaged it) and a bit annoyed with myself (that I didn't unpick and rearrange the blocks for the third time). 

 I'm not as sure about the chopped-off running-off-the-edges blocks as I was when I ran them off the edges and chopped them off.  (Ho hum.  You don't notice them when it's on the bed.)


The backing fabrics are a mish-mash from the stash, with a bit of Andalucia from the Quilt Fabric Delights sale page.

 The "panda quilt" is also done and has been claimed by the wee girl.    She won't notice that the wonkiest machine quilting occurred on the areas where black thread shows the most.

I've had a lovely stay-cation these last few weeks, but it's time to prepare for the year ahead.  We open for business again on Tuesday.
