When I first got it completed I was just sick of it. I must have sewed every square twice because the first time I turn the blocks the incorrect way. But as I pulled it out this evening-- I just loved it.
I can't decide if it's saying ' Grab the picnic basket--- let's go!' Or 'Snuggle up it' s so cold outside...' either way, it's put together. The binding is going to be brown-- to frame the entire piece.
I now have three pieces waiting in the wings for machine quilting. That's my limit. I need to get busy at the machine. Summer weather and a new pup keep me from the machine quilting, but I'll get there.

Honey, it's screaming both---it's a wonderful quilt! :)
It's T-riffic. Have you thought about using Blue Ribbon 100% cotton batting so it shrinks up a lot?
I LOVE this quilt!
Melanie, it is SO pretty! And you really got after it and got this one finished, didn't you?! Whatever way you use it you will love it. I get tired of them, too, when I'm making them, but we always make up when It's done. LOL
Oh, I love this quilt - can't wait to see pics of the finished project!
Melanie - I love this quilt. The scrappiness is wonderful.
lovely quilt........it's always so exciting to get to this stage.......
Fantastic job!
It's beautiful. Nice job.
It is out of this world...I'm over the top in love with it! AWESOME!
Your quilt is just BEAUTIFUL!! Love it so.... and would use it for everything, including every evening when I get under my blanket to watch t.v.!!
Nice! I've made up a quilt with this same block, and I love it because it's super scrappy. Good work!
I love it. What a great use of scraps. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful! Congrats on the finish.
Parts of this quilt design look very dimensional. I know how frustrating it is to have to use the seam ripper but it was worth the effort to get this quilt together.
Again, I like how you photograph your quilt along with nature.
I love this quilt. Most of the time the simplest quilt blocks are the best. I love a good old nine patch!
