Done at last, done at last

One of the reasons I haven't been blogging is I knew I wanted to finish this. It is amazing at the hours I put in this. Even if only paid $1 an hour, it would be a lot more money than most people would want to pay for it.

It was not a good day to take pictures. I may wait and take more late when there is at least some sunlight. I tried to show some of the quilting. It is nothing fancy but it is pretty when you can really see it all and not just a small section like this.  BTW, this quilt....Puss Puss and Bubbie absolutely love it.  They have snuggled in it every chance they have gotten.

You can barely see it if--even if you enlarge it.  It looks better as a whole than it does just to see this small section.

And I even put it up in the house to take photos...

So there you have what has occupied so much of my thinking time as well as working time.

Finished at last!!!!

 Just going to show random shots...they were all a little dark and I am not sure why.  I tried to adjust them.  So, just showing some of the better shots.  In the shots here of the front, the red is over-powering but in real life it has a nice balance.

 By the way below is the back of it....I always like having a back that is a little different.  Sort of feel like this is a two for one quilt.

These were all taken in the a.m. hours before washing.

I was really worried about the bleeding.....

 but threw it in the wash with Shout Color Catchers and all turned out well. 

It hung on the clothesline for an hour or two and was almost dry.  I just threw it in the dryer to finish it.  I will take pictures of it later and post one or two of them another day.

The kids are coming so might not be blogging much.

Edited to add...just looked at the photos on Roger's computer and they look pretty much like the quilt looks.  So hope they look as good on yours.
