Bound and About to be Gifted.

Since I'm leaving town on the 24th, and I'm seeing A tonight, the yellow/green helix quilt is going to its new owner this evening. This past week of studying for an hour-ish a day, going running, and quilting has been great, but that's ending soon with traveling to Atlanta and DC for the holidays then full on hobbit hole hiding while studying for the boards once I get back to Boston.

Quilt Stats:
60"x70"
Top: Riley Blake Cotton Stars in Green and Yellow, Robert Kaufman Kona Coal
Backing: Minky Dimple Dot in Oatmeal
Quilted: Meandering loops & double loops inside the green and yellow areas with Aurifil 50

 I took the quilt outside my apartment, the wind picked up that corner. The light sucks, but it's winter, and I didn't finish before 3pm, so c'est la vie. 


 The binding is pieced from the yellow and green star fabric. I still have just under half a yard of each of those left. I also have it in gray, so I see something with the green/yellow as accents to the gray stars. 

This is to show the Minky Dimple Dot in Oatmeal. 

Rolled up and ready to be gifted. Especially key that it's easy to carry since I'm taking the T to dinner tonight since it's in an area of Boston with limited parking (oh wait, that's all of Boston).

    1. Thanks! Since it's all HSTs and squares, it came together incredibly quickly. Great meeting you today, too.
