I started The Modern HST Sampler hosted by Alyce from Blossom Heart Quilts back in January 2016.
I did well for quite a while and then life got in the way and the wheels fell off......until November 2017, when I got started again.
I was determined to get it finished. I had the top completed early last month and my OMG goal for February was to get the binding on.
Ta Da!! I did it. Happy dance!
The backing is primarily the light blue floral, but with a pieced strip from offcuts down the centre. My friend Val did the quilting. It is a nice, soft design.
I had to do the bed test. Yep, that test passed as well. I am always amazed at how a different quilt on the bed changes the whole look of the room. I think this will be a summer quilt, as it looks quite cool.
I'm happy to say that my February OMG was completed on time, I have ticked off another UFO from my list, I improved my HST block skills and that all the fabric in the quilt was from stash. You have to be happy with that.
