And the big reveal: I have completed finished this wall quilt!
And I love it, even more after it has been quilted by my long armer.
The pattern is from a book by Karen K Stone whom I also took a workshop with after I had finished the top. It was great to meet her in person and see some of her new creations.
My objective was to use 5 colors for each block: red, gold, tan, background and black. I did use paper piecing for the border arcs as well as the pieced arcs. The rest was just pieced by machine using traditional methods.
I started it in January of 2021 as an online challenge. It was abandoned for a time, and finished piecing last year. My quilter returned it recently as I did not need it until my guild's show in March. She did a custom job.
And maybe you can find my mistake that I did not recognize until I got it back. I just had to laugh!
"Here comes the sun!" is my title.
Arent you clever! Your quilt is spectacular.
