A Finish and Closing in on 500!
I finally finished Alye's quilt! And just in time, too! She's reaching so many milestones all at once! Turning 18, going to the prom, and then graduation. Remember all that fun? Anyway, here's the quilt.
It's approximately 62x71 after washing and drying. It is based on the double slice quilt from Missouri Star Quilt Co., but I added sashing. I did straight line quilting close to this design.
And here's a view with a bit of the back showing.
The back is all the floral fabric. My daughter said it was cool because the front looked more modern but the back looked a little old fashioned.
