Design Wall Monday-January 16, 2012

 All that's left is the binding and label and I'm done with the official UFO challenge quilt for January. The batting/backing is fleece and I quilted each hexagon and then circles in the green sashing. The purples just has one line of quilting down the middle. I spent most of today quilting it and I like it.

The hexagons are quilted with curved lines on each seam, and then the yellow has some curved line quilting too. The picture above has more accurate color for the quilt, but you can see the quilting a bit better in this picture.
Here you can see the backing color and what I did for the quilting. Not exquisite, but I like it. I get to put the binding and label on this one, then mark it as done on the list...yay!

Just finished the binding and label...so number 2 UFO for 2012 is done.

Love the quilting and the label, so much nicer than a big one on the back.

Nice Stack n Whack. I've never made one, but have made some Buggy Barn quilts using a similar method.
