Wedding tree skirt

So, I'll confess up front that this was for a wedding last fall.  I just was stuck, stuck, stuck.

But with renewed vigor and energy, I have been on a run: finishing, finishing, finishing. I have enjoyed getting back to quilting and getting results feeds the impetus to do more. And so on and so forth

Last week I got over my issue of how to get my last 2 slices of this tree skirt. and worked out the kinks. Each of my 2 panels of strips was able to produce 3 sections.  But I needed 8 total. So I found a short cut to use cut offs for the tops and then only have to piece each bottom.
That got me going.  And yesterday I got to the finished stage.


Here is my machine image of the quilting process: just a domestic Bernina 34 years old.

Love the bright colors of the Timeless Treasures jelly roll.




Here is the front quilted.


Here is a photo of the quilting on the back.  Just follow the lines.


It looks more pinky/orangey  in color but is actually a red with those lime green dots.


I spent allllllll of the Superbowl hemming the binding, and a little longer.  ( Notice the focus light to aid my vision.)  I just wanted it done.


All it needs is a label!  Voila!!
(Hmmm   I think I will make a 2nd for the wedding in March.)
