Done!

Despite all my whining and cleaning and house showing and whining I managed to get my husband's quilt finished today. Couple of minutes here, couple there, next thing you know you have a wall hanging.

I used the Oh, Fransson! wonky nine patch, that I've had my eye on for quite some time. I'm all about wonky, so if I start there I can't go wrong, right? I picked out all the fabrics myself - I didn't use a kit or layer cake or even pre-coordinated choices. He wanted blues and greens and no one wanted girly. I think it turned out acceptable on all fronts. The back and the solid square are the same fabrics, don't let your monitor fool you. The brown in the quilt squares is more of an accurate color. I used a blue-green thread to quilt it, my walking foot and quilting guide. My quilting turned out acceptable, not fantastic, but acceptable. A few tucks here and there - I need to work on how to not do that. A poster on Stitcher's Guild helped me with my binding. She offered some EXCELLENT advise on how to finish it so it doesn't show. Top notch help. Next step is how to do the second stitching from the back. Always a next step, isn't there?
