Friday1961

Pretty sure I've spent more time on this little 72x60 quilt than on any I've made, even the Union Jack I paper pieced or others that are far bigger than this one. The main reason for that is my ripping all the quilting out after it was almost fully done. But I'm glad I went to that trouble; the first quilting, done in a serpentine stitch which I normally love, looked awful. The quilting is still not perfect, and, because I was pretty tired of it by then, I was lazy about the binding. I machine stitched it on top and it shows in places on the back.

But, oh well......it's finished, and it's colorful and I've grown fond of it........plus I learned a lot about making string quilts.

I may never give this one away; there's too much of "me" in it, lol!

Photos are of front and back. Not sure what the white spot is on the back but it's not something on the quilt.
