my 'appliqué garden' quilt is finished
 

It is finished and on my bed. Will try to take a better picture outdoors on the cloudy day, my house is too small.
I am happy that it is finished and I like it because it is for me. There many mistakes, but who is watching. If it was hand quilted it would be perfect but, machine quilting was my choice and I did not do any fancy patterns because I do not quilt that well. It is meander, morning glory leaves and cross hatch on the checkered borders. The binding is green, as the first checkered border.I have about 5 inches left of the binding, (I was so short of that fabric that I could not sew pieces of binding on bias).
Thank you for taking your time to see it.

since I am not able to attache 2 pictures in the same post, here is picture of border

machine quilted is FINE. No worries there! I like that you are using the green on the edges. Will pull it all together nicely.

Oh man! That's is wonderful and gorgeous! Love it!

It is lovely. It looks calm and peaceful to me. I like that it is uncluttered. You have "enough" going on it - and quit adding things while you were ahead.

This is so kool. Love it. You did a super job. BrendaK

I think it is beautiful! It's a finish and it was done with love and that alone makes it beautiful.

What a beautiful quilt! If I didn't know that you made it, I would think it was an antique quilt. Your quilting may not be great in your eyes but it sure looks great in the photo. Nicely done!

Beautiful!! The quilt is really lovely.
