Two years later .....

... and it's finally finished.





I am really happy with the finished quilt although the back is a bit puckered. Next time I will spend more time getting the layers flat and basted. I hand quilted rows of small stitches down each panel which gives it a lovely crinkled look. I found a plain red doona cover which matched perfectly for the back but I think it was a bit too thin and this didn't help with the puckering. I had trouble mitring the corners as the binding is quite wide but this is my first attempt at quilting so I ended up folding the edges over.
