A long, long time ago, I made a quilt. It looked like this:
It was a Moda Club kit from around 2006? 2005? You can read about the original quilt here. I gave the quilt to my mom's cousin who liked the quilt so much that she asked me to make another one for her brother. I said I would.
EIGHT YEARS LATER, I finally finished this second quilt:
Over the many, many years since I started this quilt, I lost a few pieces and had to substitute a few fabrics to finish. Then, when I was binding it, I came up about four inches short:
I think I'll make this a signature on all of my quilts. I'll plan to have a four-inch section of a contrasting fabric. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
The quilting doesn't show well in the photograph, but it is a simple overall leaf pattern. This quilt didn't need any fancy quilting -- it needed to be finished!
I hope David likes his quilt, at long last.
