...After 4 years of what seemed like endless English Paper Piecing the diamonds, traveling with this project for literally thousands of miles - as far away as our trips to Alaska...in the car; in the rv; at retreats; guild meetings; stitching with friends; doctor's waiting room; by the fire....
And joining everything together was like rubbing your head and patting your tummy at the same time...
And then turning it over to my nearby long arm quilter to add her finishing touches...
And the next to the last step of adding binding...
And adding the label...
Dancin' on the ceiling...oh boy, what a feeling!
And because I have not joined in awhile, doing Lori's QAL over at Humble Quilts .....
Feels good to be returning to the sewing room more frequently and tackling some UFO's with a dash of something new.
Happy stitching everyone!Pat
Wow, what a glorious finish! It is truly breathtaking and worthy of a special place in any quilt show in the country. Love your quilt along fabric choices too. I've been holding off on choosing my step 2 fabrics until I see the final layout. I suppose that's cheating but I want to love the finished piece!
ReplyDeleteNow that is worth celebrating!! Just beautiful!
