Another June Finish

It seems that I am on a roll, already having a second finish for the month.  In my June Wishes post, I said that I would like to finish the Solid Fat Quarter Quilt and that it would take all of one day.  Well, I made that happen.

This quilt was my planned project for Scrub Stitchin', using fat quarters that I had purchased at a charity market stall and a very simple, yet effective pattern.

I managed to get the top pieced while there, which I was rather happy about.

Once we returned home, I made my Main Goal for May to have the quilt completed.  Well, sadly, that didn't happen.  

I did get it quilted, but was too distracted with other things to get the binding on.

Happily, now I can share a fully completed quilt.  It may be later than wished, but at least I can tick it off the list, and yes, it only took one day.

My quilt holder upperer did a stirling job as usual, having to balance on a stool, as the quilt is so long.  You can see the backing in this photo and I used the same fabric for the binding, which was added by machine.  

This quilt will be donated.
