Swooned

I have finished quilting this large quilt at last, but don't have a properly flat section of wall large enough (in either direction) to photograph it! I took a few with it draped over our monkey bars late yesterday afternoon (too late really; the sun was almost gone, and was too low to really define the quilting. This one shows the pattern radiating from the centre block quite nicely though:


It's school holidays here, and James and Eleanor are at my parents' and staying for a 
sleepover. I took the quilt with me when I dropped them off in the morning and used one of their walls to photograph it, and tomorrow will post it back to Milly, who has the binding all ready to attach.


I'll wait to share photos of the whole thing until Milly has done the big reveal on her blog. But in the meantime, I have another customer top waiting to be quilted, and the last two evenings I've started piecing a new quilt, which I'll share tomorrow.
