Here's "Monkeyshines" in the process of being quilted. (Thanks to Michele for the inspiration for the quilt name!)
This is the stitch I used for the quilting. It seemed appropriate. Used up a lot of thread though!
There was enough of this bright green I'd bought on spec, on sale, to use for backing and binding.
Ta daa! The completed quilt on my kitchen floor:
It's now in a box, ready to be shipped off to its' final destination. My poor DS will be one of the many standing in line at the Post Office this week. We have quite a stack of packages to send off. Of course they aren't all ready to go just yet. Getting them ready is the order of the day. Before we do that we have to take Mr. Reilly over to the groomer. Busy, busy, busy!
Turned out great! I'm so impressed with now much you are getting finished!
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE it. It is really and truly a Monkeyshines quilt..it almost glows it carries so much light in it and it is such fun! I'm tickled I helped name it!
