I finally finished up the quilt for my Nan last night and I am so very pleased with the way it turned out.
The top hanging up on my design wall (aka the wall next to the front door) before sandwiching.
The one flub, what project by me would be complete without one? I was so sure that I had all of the blocks the right way up, but alas it looks like I ended up with some drunk geese and swans.
Showing off the awesome backing which was one big piece of the 12 Days of Christmas Picture Dots in Olive. I felt like it really pulled the whole quilt together.
Of course, one of my trusty assistants had to inspect my handiwork...
Before giving his seal of approval.
One more gratuitous kitty shot. Last one, I promise!
The finished product being modeled by my ever patient fiancé, Kevin.
All that is left now is to run it through the washer as soon as I can get some color catcher sheets, and then tie it up with some ribbon. I'm still debating on whether or not I should ship it over to my Nan, which will likely cost me close to $100 (ouch!) or wait until my Dad comes home from Amsterdam for Christmas and talk him into taking it back to London with him after the holidays.
