Finally! Quilted, labeled, bound, and sleeve sewn on, ready to hang in my foyer.
Because the piecing is so busy, it didn't need fancy quilting, just a simple meander that I was capable of doing myself.
The backing is a print in all the right colors that I found at Sheila's shop at retreat last April. Another retreater and I loved it so much that together we bought the whole bolt.
Even though there were some design missteps and challenges, and quite a bit of seam ripper activity, I enjoyed making this and I'm pleased with the result. It finished at 87 x 90".
