One more day off and I'm happy to have pushed on through the final construction steps of this quilt for my friend Janice.
It got bogged down a while ago when I got carried away making the top so large there wasn't enough of the green jungle leaf cloth for the back.
Just the other day I was delighted to find another print that was the perfect compliment to her first choice for backing.
All that remains is a day or two of machine quilting..some more great leaves I think and it will be good to go.
It's so nice to work on something that will have a long life of service.

The colour in this piece is so full of life.
And the backing cloth is a treat.
Your life has been a roller coaster lately - I hope that finishing this piece and working with this much colour, is a total pleasure for you.
What a cheerful look to this quilt. I am working on a quilt I started about 15 years ago, just throwing caution to the wind and ignoring any thought of the quilt police checking for compulsive accuracy and stitching binding corners closed.
