I didn't add the borders, so this little quilt measures 36.5 x 36.5 and hopefully will be perfect for my friend's large dining room table. Here's how it looks on mine!
I quilted this with a straight line diagonal grid using my walking foot. Simple for me to do, and I always like the results!
Since the top is made with a small fat quarter bundle called Autumn Road that I purchased in McMinnville, Oregon, and three background fabrics from my stash, I had to go shopping for the backing and binding, and here is what I found.
It makes me think of falling leaves and fireworks - perfect to celebrate a good friend on her birthday!
I even remembered to sew on a label this time!
I'm so glad to have this quilt finished and ready to be gifted!
