It’s done! The quilting seemed to take forever, but I’m thankful to share a finished quilt with you today, instead of a finished top.
Of course, my little photo bomber showed up.
I love this stripe I used for the binding.
I used muslin on the back. I found it at Goodwill and it was two lengths already seamed together to the perfect size.
I knew the crosshatch quilting would give a fantastic texture after washing. And I was right!
How yummy is that?
All the quilting imperfections are darn near invisible now.
I was so worried that the blocks were too chunky, but I love the result. Eventually, I’ll use this for a couch quilt. But it’s decorating my railing for now so I can look up and admire it.
Thanks for following along with this project.
Have a great day!

This quilt is wonderful! The quilting is perfect for it! Do you happen t0 know the information on the stripe fabric you used for the binding? I love a good stripe for binding!! Thanks!
Ahhh, for the old days (NOT that long ago!) when we used muslin for the backs of all quilts! lol I really love that binding!
That looks great!
Great finish. That binding is amazing. ☺
Thanks, Cindy! The yellow was a Paula Barnes print from one of her Companions lines. I’m so sad that it’s all gone!
