Down to the Final Borders!

Bordering is all that's left. The green cross borders that I used in lengthening the quilt slightly will be the first one, and an unknown red will be the final one.

Finished!

I'm really happy to share some photos of my finished - quilted and bound - quilt.

I may have got a little carried away with my quilting but once I started I couldn't stop :-)

I cross hatched in the squares and then did a more dense filler in the applique/stitchery blocks.

Then quite dense feathers in the border - that took forever but I got there in the end!

So happy with how it turned out... thank you Michelle, this was such a lovely pattern to make.

I hope you're all making a little progress on your Holly Cottage Christmas quilts too :-)

Happy Stitches, 

Raewyn.
