Nature's Journey - Quilt Top Done

I am so happy my quilt top is done!  I have put a full weekend in sewing to get it done. 

This is my first fully completed Anni Downs quilt. Thank you Chooky  and Susan I know it would not have been done unless I had deadlines to meet. 

It's also good to know you are not doing it on your own.  

I am not sure when it will be quilted soon..... I hope.

Thank you ladies I have enjoyed my journey with you all.  I think everyone has done beautiful work....so until next time enjoy your stitching. 

I will still be checking out the blog to see how you are all going.

Jenny 





I had to decide ion the colour for the  vase.. I left this until last. I began with red , then blue and finished with grey.
