This is an Alex Anderson pattern that I got years ago from a quilt calendar that I bought. I really liked this quilt and decided to make it. I didn't stray much from the original colors because I liked them so much and they matched my living room.
Like I had said in a previous post, I had the top done but could never find a suitable fabric for the borders. Then I came across this pretty border fabric from the Simple Abundance line and bought it with this quilt in mind. I brought it home and it matched perfectly! I was so delighted.
I made the last stitch on the binding and then took it outside for a photo shoot. Around here you gotta snap fast before it starts raining again. I brought it inside and laid it on the couch and next thing I know my daughter was snuggling under it. I am glad it's loved already.

congratulations. you're flying through those ufos!
That border is perfect! and you did it without any of the fabric with you?? amazing!
Oh that turned out great! Love it! It's nice too when you get something done that's been sitting a while...it seems like less work that way!
My "WIP" are so jealous of yours, they just sit there, sad - wondering if I'll ever finish them...:) This quilt is fabulous - reminds me a little of a Thimbleberries I put aside a little too long ago - I really need to dig deeper into my WIP pile!
Way to go! 3 done and 10 more to go. I know you can do it. Merry Christmas!
Good job Trisha.
Very nice. It's in my favorite colors.
