Nearing Completion



In the post last week I received a lovely surprise post from Daisy Chain, which was a delight.
Thanks Daisy!

This quilt has been a labour of love. The reason it has come together so quickly, is that I just had so much fun making it.
The photos don't seem to do it the justice it deserves with the artificial light, but I tried to hang it on the line and it was just too big.

Now I'm working on piecing the back.

Annie, this quilt is bloody brilliant. No wonder you love it. The way the squares flow into the outer border is so interesting, and really lifts it to a new level. Love, love, love it.
