Almost Finished!

Well, the top is finished. It took me a couple days to figure out which fabric to use for the inner border.
 Unfortunately, I could not make the tulips from the Bee In My Bonnet row along. I did not have enough back ground fabric. I took out the "V" row which I am going to use on the back of the quilt. I need to make a trip to the LQS to get the backing fabric. I have the binding all made so once I get it quilted I will be ready to finish this WIP. I really enjoyed working on this quilt. Lori's tutorials are very precise on her blog. She went to a lot of work and I really appreciate the time she put into her tutorials.
I am linking this finish up Lyn's blog.

With Passion,
Carrie P.

Youi did a spectacular job, Carrie! I love the colorway you chose. Very nice. I plan on finishing mine when I return to the (cold) north and am around my stash again. I'll have a lot of catching up to do, but it will be first in line at the machine.

It is fantastic. And It is good to see one that isn't an exact copy. It helps me to visualize if my border doesn't work out. Thanks so much for showing us your finished top. It is beautiful.

Hi Carrie. I have to say that I truly like your rendition of the row-quilt-along. This is the first one I've see that's in a "darker" color trend (if that makes sense). I've seen many, many, many in pastels and I'm definitely leaning towards your beauty!!

Candace said...

It's just wonderful, Carrie! Finishing it off your way gives it your own personal mark! I like that you roll your bindings the same way I do.
Cheers!

Sharon said...
