finished my (2) Appliqued Connecticut quilts

I was commissioned to make 2 appliqued quilts for a house built in 1785 in Connecticut- been working on them for 3 months- finally finished the binding on the second one today , YEA! was asked to wash & dry them when I finished so they would have that (crinkly) look, so, as soon as the second one came out of the dryer I took the pics- ready to get them sent out & move on to other projects. i'm pretty happy with the way they turned out- my first time working with all solids- they are 68" x 96" (measurements requested) there were some challenges.
