It is a celebration for me because I have finished my
Hop To It Quilt. I have had the binding done for several days. I had to wait for Mr. P. and Miss P. to be home at the same time so they could hold this queen size quilt up so that I could take pictures. Miss P. had the day off and Mr. P. came home for lunch so I finally got to take some pictures. The light is dappled by the some leaves left on the trees.
I did this quilt as a BOM with an applique group that I attended last year. I got a little behind but was determined to get it done this year.
With the help of Mary from
Quilt Hollow I accomplished that goal.
Look at the fabulous long arm quilting she did on my quilt.
I love how she echoed the diamond border in the aqua border. I also love those big swirls in outside border. Thanks Mary for your hard work! I am so pleased with the results.
FYI--All the fabric but the greens is from a line called Martinique by 3 Sisters for Moda. I will add this to my PIP list. Yay!
With Passion,
Carrie P.
