Ugh, done, I quilted the monster yesterday. Everything kind of went to you know where when I added the borders, which rippled, everything was so stretchy. Then I realized one side of backing was too short to flip for cheater binding and I had to add some fabric back on (thank goodness for the print, you really can't tell). I think it'll be good after a wash/dry. The thing that saved me from throwing the whole thing in the garbage was spray adhesive instead of basting/pinning, I love that stuff. I did SITD around some of the pinwheels & just outlined the borders. At any rate, I'm off to deliver it to the fire dept now & I hope it makes them some money & that someone I know wins it for a Christmas gift :)

Anyone else so totally tired of looking at a quilt after you finally finish it? This has got to go, no matter how much I thought I'd want one like it for myself, no way, lol!
