The Finished Quilt



Click photo to enlarge*

I worked on this king size quilt (my second work) for 3 weeks and four days. This is a beginner's pattern, BTW. Last March 13, I finally finished handquilting this project. Husband thought this is like a great work of art. WOW (sigh)! This Monday, I'd sew over it (at the back) my "quilt label" that would identify my name as the quilter plus the date I finished it and the location included. This gives a bit of info re: how this quilt came about. A quilt is like an heirloom and speaks a lot about its origin. I learned to quilt by myself 8 months ago after buying my first beginner's quilt ("Yellow Brick Road" pattern) in Lincoln City, Oregon.
