The pattern for block # 52 arrived today. It was a quick and easy 6″ block and was quickly made and added to it’s place in the quilt.
Originally, I was going to leave the quilt in four quarters and quilt it myself, but decided to send it to the long arm quilter. I sewed the four quarters together and then pieced a backing with more of the Japanese fabric. I’m glad to have made that decision. I need to get on to other projects. This one has gone on for a year. It is time for something new.
The backing
The quilt is very busy, but I really enjoyed making all the different blocks. Miss Molly has inspected the quilt and has given her approval. I took pictures of the left and right sides of the quilt.
The quilt show is in two weeks and I have to finish a few things before then. Labels have to be made and sleeves applied to two quilts. After than, I can sit back and decide which quilt to make next. I have several quilts planned in my head. Of course, there are always the UFOs to be finished.
Have a great day and happy quilting.
