A Finished Top

November 13, 2012 by Valerie 4 Comments

Here’s the finished top on my bed (no walls large enough). Actually, it looks pretty good in my room… No, this is headed to the east coast.

I always feel finished when the top is done, and then remember that I have to piece a giant back. And the batting. Ah, well. Back to it.

Linking up to Work in Progress Wednesday at Freshly Pieced.

Gorgeous! Didn’t realize the blocks were so big – a good idea–love the colors.

How are you going to quilt that sucker? On your home machine?

Zig zag is always great, the big size is inspiring. To make the top is the best part, do you agree?

Your top is beautiful! I just completed a chevron top myself 🙂 I love the color palette you have used here as well as the larger blocks 🙂
