3 year UFO/WIP finished!!!!!!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]422555[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]422556[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]422557[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]422554[/ATTACH]
after working on this quilt off and on for 3 years, I forced myself to work on this until I finished it. I named it Hallelujah Point because I knew that's what I would be singing when it was completed. i also could've named it "Shoulda done this differently" no explanation needed!!. it's not perfect, but it's finished!
the center of the quilt was the only pattern I had and it was wall hanging size. I designed the rest and that is not really my talent. but all in all I'm OK with it.
the picture with a piece of fabric is what I used for the backing.

I think that is really neat how you utilized the different landscape fabrics to really play out the theme of a lighthouse on a rocky jetty. Well done! I usually take a long time to complete projects too! 3 years is my normal. I finish stuff in between but most quilts take me several years to complete.

Well it looks really pretty, That is a good size quilt to work on.! I have a couple that are WIPs. DGD sent me a photo from a scene I believe from a video game. It's really cute but looks like it's going to be a lot of applique. Not sure how big it's going to be but hopefully no bigger than a wall hanging.

It's really pretty. I didn't see anything obviously wrong with your pattern. I love all the colors. But you've obviously grown as a quilter since you started this project. Will look forward to seeing more of your projects.
