I present...
....my finished friendship quilt! I sewed the binding and appliqued our names on last night, and it now awaits those good books to curl up with! To all the ladies who contributed blocks, thank you again, it is now most definitely my favorite quilt!
A close up of the back too; I like it almost as much as the front. And because I quilted as I went, I actually enjoyed the quilting process this time, instead of having it be a frustrating and self-esteem-sapping experience.
My thank-you's are wrapped and ready to go out, and I'm already cutting into fabrics for the next project! What new projects are you working on right now?
Wow - that is so beautiful! I can only imagine how pleased you must be - what a wonderful way to celebrate friendship! A true heirloom :D
