    Default Tonga Nature finally quilted

    I started this beauty in 2011 and finished it in 2021. It hung in my closet for 4 yrs. waiting for me to get up enough nerve to quilt it. I decided it was never going to happen and finally sent it off to MSQC. It is quilted with oak leaves and acorns as it reminds me of fall. Here is the original post in 2021 LOL, and now the reveal. We are in the midst of clearing out my brother-in-laws house so the binding will have to wait, once again, but I promise it will be soon. It is shown on our king sized bed.

    Very lovely quilt! I bet you are really happy to have it finished - almost. I hope you can get it bound quickly so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor. It’s stunning.

    Such a lovely quilt, I'm glad it is (almost) ready to be used.
