Finished Argyle Quilt

It's finally finished after a long, long time as a WIP!


This is an embarassing admission, but this quilt has been sitting at my apartment only needing the binding sewn on since May. Oops.



I hand stitched the binding on the back, so it took me quite a few hours of watching The West Wing on Netflix to finish it!


This one is going on our bed later today!




Stats:
Pattern: blocks from Tula Pink's Honey Honey pattern, setting designed myself.
Size: Queen
Fabric: mostly from City Girl line by Kitty Yoshida for Benartex with others mixed in
Quilting: pantograph roses

Linking up with Crazy Mom Quilts for Finish It Up Friday! Wish me luck tomorrow as I am going over to enter quilts in the county fair!

    Oh! It's gorgeous! Really love the colors! I just hope that someday I will be able to use the words "finished" and "quilt" in the same sentence! XO

    Love the quilt and design-- I think argyle is in my quilt design future! The colors are sort of Downton Abbey?

    Nice color choice. I too can extend the period between quilting and binding quite a bit. Between top and quilting too, for that matter.
