This was my January quilt.....which just got finished the last day of February. haha There hasn't been any quilting going on around here lately.
McKenna Ryan's patterns are cool, but, my goodness, does she love those tiny pieces. It took me months to get this together and then a few weeks to get it quilted. There were multiple thread changes.
I do like the final result. it is 52x68
One of the 'fun' parts was where pieces of a block lapped over into another block....or into the border. Those jellyfish tendrils were a mess.
I pieced leftover sections together for the back. and used leftovers for the binding, also.
Took me almost a year to get it done, but I'm glad I finished it. I think I'll keep this one.
She charges quite a hefty fee to get the kit with pieces all cut, but I'm thinking it would be worth it.

Way to go!!! I put this quilt top together MANY years ago, but never finished it. Now my daughter has requested it as a wedding quilt for September, so I've been working on its quilting. I decided I wanted to do trapunto work on it, and yeah - all those tiny pieces!!! lolol Yours turned out beautifully, and I ***love*** that backing fabric.
