Any of you who read this blog know I’ve been working on this quilt for a long time, but tonight I got it completely done and ready to show off!!! Here it is:
This is my fourth completed quilt, machine-pieced and hand-quilted. I’m on a roll. Wink, wink! For this quilt, I received the fabric for Christmas 2010, got the pattern and cut the fabric for my Independence Day birthday 2011, started sewing for Thanksgiving 2011, got the top done for Valentine’s Day 2012, and did the hand-quilting and binding before my Independence Day birthday 2012. I’m like the Tortoise, slow but sure. The pattern is “Off the Grid” Sliced Nine Patch by Quilt Dad and I’m so HAPPY to have it done! It was my hardest pattern yet and turned out great with all those lovely fall colors and prints. It will really make my living room railing festive come November.
I’ll get back to quilting a “Tall Tales” quilt and piecing a “Wild Things” top, so other stuff is in the pipeline. Wa-hoo!
It’s beautiful!
Loooove it!!!
