Finish #2


I'm calling this one finished! In reality it's almost finished.......but will be done, done, done by this evening! I'm headed in to sew the binding on and then I am going to finish it by machine. Add a label and do the happy dance.

I chose this project as UFO#6 for Judy L's UFO Challenge. This is Quiltville's 2008 New Year's Eve mystery called Double Delight. From looking back in my blog, I see I made good progress during January and then who knows why but it got put away. Then looking at more photos, I see the borders were added and the top was finished in November 2009 and folded up and put on Mt. ToBeQuilted.


I used a twin sheet for the backing and of course it isn't wide enough. I made these orphan blocks from parts of several quilts including Double Delight and thought this was a good place to use up these blocks.

Thanks Judy L for the 2011 UFO Challenge and for choosing UFO #6.

It looks stunning! Congratulations on getting Double Delight finished up once and for all. I had it in my "to be quilted" pile forever, but just finished it up quite recently. It feels good to have it done.

Wonderful finish you have posted. That's a major accomplishment to have this one completed. I'm working to get some stuff around here completed but life keeps getting in the way.

Beautiful quilt. And I love the idea of Mt. ToBeQuilted. I think I'm going to have to rename a pile in my sewing room now...

You must be delighted with your Double Delight! It's beautiful. I had thought about doing this one, but I was already so behind on my other Bonnie projects. Color me jealous. Wanna give it to me? No, just kidding. But it really is fabulous, and I really am envious!
Cheers,
Dionne
