Hip Not to be Square FINISHED!
 

Thanks to all who helped me through the dilemmas while making this king-sized quilt for my best friend and neighbor.

I will be taking it to her in a couple of weeks and am sooo excited!
I ended up buying more fabric to have at least 3 of each color. It's SID around all the black, then quilted in the hoop in the open spaces. It could have FMQ'd it in 1/3rd of the time as it took me to hoop and center all those blocks.

Just realized it's laying on the bed sideways.

I am sure your friend is going to be delighted with the final results!

Sideways or longways, makes no difference as it is a gorgeous quilt and you did a fabulous job on it! The colors are stunning!
