It's done, not just the quilt top but the WHOLE thing.
Thank you to Rachel at P.S. I Quilt for the great quilt-a-long!
I finished up between last night and today.
The quilting was not too bad, but I only did parallel straight(ish) lines.
Once that was done the binding was easy.
I finished the hand stitching of the binding this afternoon.
The backing is FLANNEL!
I love the backing!
I tried to get a picture of the whole thing but only the short people were home
and I really wanted to post this today.
I will have to get the husband to help out with that picture.

That is amazing. I love the border. How does your border look so nice before you put it on. Is it biased or straight cut? When I do bias binding it looks all ragged and uneven before I put it on. What's your secret? Maybe you just know what you're doing. That could explain the difference since I don't always. I do like the backing. It's all just gorgeous.
omg! i love this!! the colors are fantastic!
What a beautiful quilt and a beautiful job!!
I ♥ this! I plan on putting flannel on mine, too. Just wish it were already done for this cold freeze that is hitting us :)
This is so very beautiful! I have made a couple quilts but I find it near impossible to make the binding have a professional look. You're pictures are great, so I was wondering if you would do a tutorial on your binding technique?? Thanks!
ohhhh! I loooove it! :) So beautiful! and I love the backing, too!
Kristin~it's beautiful! Another amazing job. You just amaze me.

Great job! Yours is my favorite of the Quilt Alongs! Love your choice of fabric for the top and the backing!
Congratulations! You won first place in the quilt-a-long!
The quilt turned out great - I LOVE the Bliss fabrics - so pretty!
i luv your quilt and the backing is great ... thanks for the chuckle about only the 'short people' being home :O)
That is so beautiful I love that shade of blue with red! But wow those itty bitty postage stamps seem like a lot of work to quilt. Love the end result and so worth the effort!
Words cannot express how much I love this quilt. Seriously. The backing fabric was a perfect choice, and I LOVE the binding. Fantastic job, Kristin.
Beautiful, you are so talented.
