I put the quilt over my bed for the photo.
Let me ask: When you are sewing the binding onto the quilt, do you ever go "OH no! What if I didn't make enough? " That happened to me today. But of course there was plenty. There is even some leftover. And speaking of the binding, I suppose you want to see it too. If you don't, you should stop looking NOW.
This was a black and white batik type fabric. Cut on the bias, it resembles the zebra print that I used in the quilt. I think it added a great finishing touch to the quilt, The quilt is labeled, but I can't show that until after the presentation - just in case.
I am happy that the quilt is done and looks good. I am also happy that Craftsy is such a good platform for learning. I have taken classes from teachers that I would likely never get to study with on Craftsy. I love the quilting classes - but there are classes on so many things: Sewing, Cooking, Embroidery, Cake Decorating, Woodworking, Jewelry, Paper crafts and more.

AWESOME!! AND a whole day ahead of schedule - WooHoo!! - ;))
You are the speedy one with a day to spare. It looks great.
I love that you do your binding by machine. I'm trying that, and hope my 2nd stitching line isn't too obvious on the back. To have it perfectly match the first line is too much to hope for. Wish me luck, I need to get hand-stitching out of my life.
It turned out great and that has to be one of the fastest quilts ever!
Really came out beautiful!! Love your choice for the binding!!
That is a beautiful quilt, Gene.
I need a class on digital photography!
