Tara's Graduation Quilt

This quilt belongs to my friend's grand daughter for her graduation. i've been working on it for weeks. i wanted it to be a bit modern and not just full of feathers. It is 86" square

It is pale green, pink and gray. she wanted white thread. the thread is kind of hard to see.

It is all ruler work....circles and CC and straight lines through the rows of HSTs.

And, yes, there is a flange. i had to hold it back while quilting the Xs. I managed not to catch any of the flange while holding it back. i'm proud of me. haha

there are a few feathers in the border in the small ovals that are between the half circles.

It all shows up better on the back.

There were lots of starts and stops...especially with those lines. and some backtracking there, too.

I delivered it yesterday and she loved it. so, now it is on her to get the binding on and off to the grand daughter. i just can't get excited about quilting for others these days, so i am glad this one is finished.
