Quilt 1

Seen here, here, and here. This is a king-sized quilt for our bed. I've finished piecing the quilt top (except for the border) and have ordered the backing fabric, which I'm thrilled with - can't wait for it to arrive.
Here's how I've done with the process:
decide on design- buy fabric for the front - [possibly still need border fabric; I'll see if I like the backing fabric for the border and if there's enough]
buy fabric for the backbuy fabric for the bindingbuy batting- cut the pieces for the front - [still have to do border]
- piece the front of the quilt - [still have to do border]
- cut the pieces for the back unless using whole cloth
- piece the back of the quilt if applicable
- baste the quilt unless sending out to long-arm quilter
- do the quilting / have the quilting done
- cut and prepare the binding
- machine stitch the binding on
- hand finish the binding
- wash and dry

Seen here and here. I've been busy working on this one this week as and when I have energy.

This is a quilt for Noah. He has had a lot of input - in fact, I've had to rein him in at times and remind him that while I'm making the quilt for him, I am the one making the quilt and it's actually my project! Who knew he was so opinionated about quilts! Together we've decided on a design and fabrics that he is happy with. I just need to buy a little more, then I can start piecing. I'm actually really excited about this quilt; I think it's going to be fabulous when it's done.
