Here you go Kevin

To Kevin, and everyone he sends this post to - you are going to love this quilt!! I wasn't lying about the whole, starting your own blog just to rave about it, thing. And to answer your questions, yes I LOVE it, and yes, I am glad it is done. I think I might have a couple calluses from some of the needlework I did on it. Here are some more pictures I took during the construction process.

This picture was taken during the quilting stage. Do you see all that material I got to PUSH through my sewing machine? I think I might have gotten some serious muscles from this exercise alone. If you look closely at the picture you'll notice the basting I did from my last post. This basting helped keep everything together as I quilted it.

Okay, this picture is of the trimming process. I don't know what else to say about that.

I really love the row of patches you had for the back. I tried to get them straight, but you'll notice it didn't quite happen as I planned. Don't worry, it still looks fantastic.

Here is the finished project complete with edging. Are you starting to get excited about putting it on your bed and having all your friends come in to admire it? That is one great quilt!!

And of course, the piece de resistance (at least for me) is the star on the back. A quilt isn't complete without one. It's small, and in the bottom corner, if you hate it you can pretend it isn't there. But really, who would want to ignore that cutie.

Wow, I'm starting to feel a little heady. Feel free to knock me down a peg if you'd like. If not, I won't think the less of you for it.
