I did it!

Remember in my last post I set myself a challenge to have the top together by the end of this week!  Well.......

a sideways picture :(

My top is completed! I had a little frustration later this afternoon because I had mucked up with the measurements of a couple of blocks but I managed to fix it!

I will look and see what I have for backing tomorrow and hopefully might get it pinned sometime on Sunday.
