Finally finished the BIG ONE!!

My husband wanted a new quilt for our bed.  So last year in October I decided to make him one.

It's an Angela Walters pattern that I made bigger.  And since I bought a Sweet Sixteen I decided that this was going to be my practice quilt.

I finished it last Saturday, but today is his birthday so I gave it to him this morning.

I can't believe I didn't notice the tree shadow right in the middle of the quilt.

And a close up of the quilting.





And on the bed.


The backing could not have been better.


He absolutely loves it.

This quilt it 114 x 114, it took me a year to complete, and it has 627,058 quilting stitches.
I do piece work in the weekends and quilting each evening for an hour and a half, between work and dinner. 

Hoping you have more stitching time than I have.
