I'm on a roll! I just got this baby quilted and off the frame. Now I have to dig out the binding and work on that this week. Glad to have another one marked off my list.
I guess what I enjoyed the most about making this quilt is the fact that I was able to use some really ugly fabrics in it. LOL!
A view of the back. I really like using that Dazzle design. I think it is something that I will be using more often. I just like the texture it gives.
I do have several more tops that have the backings ready. It is funny how I will not use my quilting machine very often to quilt my own and then when I get in the mood I usually quilt several at a time. I think I have 4 or 5 more that have the backings ready. I guess next up will be a string quilt. I'm hoping to get it loaded on tomorrow. It will probably take me a few days because I want to do some fairly dense quilting on it and I'm slow. LOL! First I need to clean and oil my machine real good.

Beautiful quilt and quilting!
Love it!
Ugly fabrics notwithstanding, it is wonderful, Kristie! I really like that quilting design you used.
I put the fabric in the mail today--they said it should arrive Friday.
Oh my goodness! That came out awesome Kristie! I love your spiderweb..... I can't show Emmy a picture or she would want one like it. She is a red girl!
Wow! Love the quilt and the quilting. Makes me want to start one like this today ....so many quilts so little time.
Great job! I love that about scrappy quilts too...you can use all the fabrics, even the "uglies!" Looks like you'll have lots of binding to do now. :)
This turned out beautiful! Looks like red was THE color!
I love the photos of Leo...what a sweetie. So nice to see him thriving and I'm very happy he has a boy to take care of! :-)
Finally, I was able to find our Spider web quilt with the RED background! Very kewlllll! So are all your other quilting and projects - you are one capable women!!!
I lived in Knoxville, TN for many years - now in western Nebraska - I sure miss those GREEN hills!
