Better Finished Than Perfect

Look what I finished -
 
Shabby Roses, begun in a class at Quilt Ventura in September 2014 (!!!), 
 
is quilted, bound, washed and on the bed in our upstairs 'guest room'. 
  
It's probably a bit small for this bed, but Leanne and I love it and can't wait to sleep under it tonight.
 
And? A second quilt - another long time project - is almost done. Just need to finish hand-sewing the last two sides, toss it in the washer, and put it out to be used. Maybe I'll even get it done before the new year. Fingers crossed.

Note to myself: the tulip fabric in the border is "Botanica II - Spring" by Color Principle for Henry Giass; the backing fabric - that looks like one of my high school prom dresses (in a good way) - 

is "Marblehead" by Ro Gregg for Paintbrush Studio.
