    Default My king-size quilt is finally done!

    I designed this quilt and it is BIG -- 115" square. I quilted it on my dms, but I did it in sections. I used Marti Michell's "Machine Quilting in Sections" book as my guide. The squares are 15" finished. I had 4 sections. Three were 2 squares by 7 squares and the last was 1 x 7. After quilting they were sewn together using the 8-layer method. Then I added each border, batting, and backing (all with one seam) and quilted them. The pictures don't do the colors justice. It is rust orange, brown print, and tan. Hope you like it.
