Finally finished my summer quilt
 

I finished my summer quilt on July 11th and did the "Finally Finished the Freaking Quilt!" dance around my bedroom.

It was a long slog. It's not even close to being perfect (I've GOT to work on my quilt backs!!!) but it's it good enough for a first bed quilt. I learned a lot in the process.

I really love how the green borders, with the FMQ turned out. I used a new ruler, from Westalee, to do it. And, because it has so many corners I curved the serpentine stitch that's holding it all together. I thought that gave it a different touch.

After sleeping under it I really wish I would have made one sooner. It's light enough I don't get hot but heavy enough that it 'cuddles' me.

Looking great!! You did a great job on that one! love the colors too!

Great job, quilting and all!

I just made my first summer quilt this year also & I absolutely love it. I already thinking of making another one because I love it so much. Yours is so pretty & I love the quilting on it.

Hooray for you! Your quilting looks fantastic. Sweet dreams under your new quilt!

congratulations! it looks perfect to me.

Yay! Thats my favorite dance too, congratulations, you quilting is wonderful and I love the colors you chose, well done.

You put a lot of work in that "first". Enjoy it and on to #2.https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png
