    Default Orchid print quilt done

    finally, i think i made this quilt 10 years ago and had a woman in Denver quilt it for me. She was just starting out and did another one earlier. Well as with the first one, she left thread bits over 1/3 of the quilt when she changed her mind on her stitching. It took me an hour to clean up the first quilt so when i got this one back, i packed it away. Way away.
    I now have a full size bed so had to trim the yellow border off so it wouldn't drag the floor. The binding is on but still needs to be turned and stitched down on the back. I have shams to finish too that match.
