TA DA! A Finish

I put the final binding stitch (machine) in this Tuesday afternoon then photographed it Wednesday morning before things got too hot to be outside (typing this at 12:55 this Thursday afternoon, it's already over 100º in the shade).

71" x 89"

The checkered fabric is an old sheet behind the quilt, preventing splinters from the fence and moisture from the just-watered grass.

I used the same teal for binding as I used in the strips separating the components of the back. Despite all my careful placing and pinning, shift happened and the long edges ended up a bit wonky. Having the teal along all the edges helped even things out a little.

I Terry Twisted all the blocks using King Tut "Cleopatra" on top and "Nefertiti" on the bottom.

Once this quilt was done I turned my attention to the Easy Breezy top still needing its borders attached and got that done too. It's now draped front and center on the rack, awaiting a choice of backing and its turn on the pinning table.

Yay!
