Oh goodness. I finished putting the four borders on today and started on the backing. I was determined to use up most of the fabric I pulled out lol. I started to make a large log cabin block for the back with 8.5 inch wide strips. I joined the strips with like fabric when I needed to and then just used whatever lol.
I finally got tired of all the sewing and finished up with a wide strip all around to finish the backing.
I will now sweep and wash the floor in the studio where the machine is and put the quilt up. I will probably start the quilting tomorrow. I don't know what kind of quilting I will do yet......
According to the book, I have used about 10 yards of fabric for the quilt and 7 1/4 for the backing, so that would make about 17 yards or so used up....it doesn't look like it tho lol.
