A first for me




I joined this quilt along  in May and now i am excited to be  finished. 
I made a conscious decision to finish on time and i think there is still one week to go.

 i love the outcome
a lot of cutting, but well worth it

made mostly from my stash 
i had to buy the backing and the fabric for the binding
i sandwhiched this quilt with a new flannel sheet
really happy with the outcome
and of course loved every bit of the hand quilting


i went for a drive to visit a friend in an area i lived some years ago

 
here i was hoping to get more of the stunning ranges in the background
i just love this area
with moving from one mountain to the next it is not too far to 
travel to visit old friends and enjoy
yet another gorgeous mountain range

 
i loved this etchings fabric at first glance
one happy girl here. Love my new quilt
and its a keeper...
thank you Anna Maria and Janome for the inspiration

I love you purple binding! I did purple too :) Doesn't it feel good to have done it on time. I was so excited when I finished.

It looks great!

Oh my gosh, your quilt is stunning! I LOVE the colours, and their arrangement, I have "pinned" the pattern, and one day I hope to make one too.
