I
FINALLY finished a project! I started it about 3 years ago..or maybe 4? I'm not sure. Anyway, It was in the works for awhile. The top came together very easily. I made the pattern as I went along. The ladies were a panel so I just cut them apart and framed them with different fabrics I had in my stash. I added the 9 patch in the middle to mix it up a bit. I was very pleased with the way it turned out.

| The finished quilt |
The finished top sat for awhile and then I quilted it, made the binding and put the binding on. Then it sat some more. Eventually I got around to finishing the binding, though that took several months of me doing a little then putting it down, picking it up and doing a little and then putting it down. Once that once done it sat a little more until I put the label and sleeve on the back (my least favorite part!)

| Hanging it up with Molly supervision |
The very last part was hanging it up. I managed to convince The Man that NOW was a good time to hang it up. I used an old curtain rod that doesn't fit our windows in this house. It's a perfect fit! We no longer have a big boring white spot on our wall.
