quilt #21

Well, I think I just need to accept that it takes me FOREVER to make a quilt. According to my blogging dates, this last one took THREE YEARS!!!  (Although, in my defense, we did sell our house to move cross country and off grid in the mean time.) This one is special to me because it's the first quilt I made for myself - not just using up scraps or matching the furnishings at my work, but actually picking the colors, pattern, and fabric just for my very own self and my own space.  It turns out that I really don't like working with triangles or with solid colors, so I'm especially proud that I got this one done! It was worth it in the end :)


Rose and Bart love it too!

Doug supervised the pinning process. I had JUST enough space in our dining room to get it done.
