a finished piece!

i finally got round to finishing my summer quilt - i've been very slow at the final quilting stage, tying all the layers together with simple sun motifs - i decided to make them really simple and sketchy to speed the process - the last step was completing the edging which i did while recovering from a chest infection which had me floored for 10 days

i'm really pleased with the quilt, making it in small pieces worked well for me as it felt very manageable - it also gave me the opportunity to experiment usefully and not end up with a load of samples to store - and i've used up some of my stash ..... of course i've more than compensated in the meantime so my stash is bigger than when i started the quilt - i need to work faster and buy less .... that's going to happen isn't it!!!!!!

anyway, for the record, some pics

So sorry to hear that you haven't been well-- sometimes infections caught mid-season are often hard to shake off. Do love your finished summer quilt with such a delicate blend of colours. What's next?

I like how you started with sections. I may use this idea...the color is great and the free motion lightens it.
