I am at the quilting halfway point! One of the reasons I decided to make this a small project was in the hopes that I would finish sooner, but alas, that's not really happening. (The downside of doing more than one project at once, and also quilting by hand.) That said, I am loving how this is turning out and I am thoroughly enjoying spending time with the pretty fabric.
There's a close up for you to see. I think since this one and my quilt for Katherine are so heavily quilted, I might try to use larger pieces in whatever I make next.
And here you can see one side quilted, one side waiting for its turn in the quilting hoop. I'm going to try to focus on this one in the hopes of finishing it in the next two months, then I will most on to my other quilt. Hopefully I'll be able to post another update soon!
