naomi's quilt

it's coming along nicely, i liked to put all the pieces together and arrange them with joel and m's help. a late night activity with beer in hand...
the off white framing is pleasant and brings out the changes in colour from the different squars, without them looking to busy.

the back of the quilt is fabric of an old duvet cover of mine. i picked the fabric when i was 13 to sow that cover during sewing class in high school....
i felt like i had to brake it up, so i took some of the fabric i used for the front, to make stripes. i'm pleased with the look. both parts are now put together, with the batting in between. lots of safety pins have to do for now. my sewing machine is at the shop for an over haul, i will get it back at the beginning of the week. but wanted to tackle some other projects firs, more in a few days.
