I finally finished the binding on this quilt. It only took me a year! I bought the Kaffe Fassett fabrics in a kit at the very first quilt show I attended last year. Wish I had a yard of each print! I really adore his stuff. The backing had to be pieced. Backings always mess me up! Bones thinks it's his quilt. Silly dog.

The gorgeous quilting was done by Eagle Mountain Quilting: http://www.eaglemountainquilting.com/

No, I didn't plan it like that!

Awesome! That is gorgeous. Is it just triangles? Looks like a perfect 1st quilt to try.

Love it. His fabrics are my FAVORITES right now! I just got his new book called Quilt Romance...I pretty much plan to make every quilt in the book and hang them in my house - would make great wall pieces!!

Beautiful fabrics......hard to describe just "how" beautiful they are....

I am glad to hear of a source for machine quilting--my choices are limited where we live. How long do they usually take?

Beautiful! Love those fabrics and simple quilt design--and nice backing too. So KF is a he--didn't know it was a person rather than a company name.

Joan, Eagle Mounting Quilting is very fast! They are quite reasonable too. Even with shipping, the quilting costs are usually much less expensive than my local quilt shop. And my local shop is so backlogged most of the time.

Kaffe Fassett is a person! Here's his site: http://www.kaffefassett.com/Home.html

Sorry I spelled his name wrong in the title. Can't fix it now.
