Another Quilty post

I finally finished it!! Wahoo! This is the black hole that has been sucking up all my sewing time lately... and house cleaning time, and cooking time, etc. lol. It took way longer and was much more complicated than I had thought it would be. I have never ripped so many seams as I did on this quilt. I think it finished out pretty striking, though. It's a generous-sized lap quilt (46x68). Many thanks to my friend, Barb, for encouraging me to try the Seminole pieced border. All that's left is a little bit of the binding and then it's off to its new home for Christmas. The recipient doesn't read my blog, so I thought I was safe posting a picture. With my luck, she'll surf on over for the first time ever and the surprise will be spoiled.
