A Finish - Finally!

Finished my Windmills quilt...binding and all.


How hard is it to photograph quilts?...just when I pressed the button, the wind gently moved the quilt and in a minute it was down on the ground. I love the colours of this and am happy with how it turned out. Very bright and cheerful.

Below is the quilting. Overall the Jester Hats design gives it a very textured feel...maybe a bit more than I expected. However I am happy with that as I am learning to just go with it (and put it down to experience). Perfectionism, while not completely out of the window, is making room for just learning and enjoying the process. This is a good thing.


For readers interested in the pattern, this little quilt will make it into my pattern shop at Craftsy in the next few weeks.

For now, linking up to Anything Goes Linky Party at Stitch by Stitch
