(although I am forever calling it Tea for Two!) is done except for the label and handsewing the binding down! That will happen as a hand project while we are on vacation.
You might remember, I first spoke of this one back here. It was a Blue Mountain Quilter's Guild workshop where we worked on this quilt, designed by Prairie Pieces. A really fun partner project, where both of you end up with quilt tops. Now that mine is nearly finished (and I think this might almost be a record for me actually getting a workshop quilt finished within the same year! It is just over a month since I did that workshop. Sometimes I amaze myself!), it is going to be a present for a friend we are going to visit while on vacation. Shhhh! she doesn't know, but I think we're safe, as I don't think she reads this blog!
I had great fun quilting this using a Leafy Meander from Kim Stotsenberg's book, "Just Leaf It". You should pop over and check out Kim's blog as she does some beautiful quilting.
I also had a lot of fun piecing the back from leftover strips - I think I like the back even better than the front! (I love the quilting and the quilting is so much easier to see back there!)
I haven't made up the label yet as I'm waiting for inspiration to strike in terms of a name - any suggestions?
Happy quilting!

Janet, you are such a quilt artist. Again, another stunning example of your creative quilting. WOW!!
The colours in this had me drooling and then I saw the quilting - wow!
Lovely quilting as usual.
WOW... I love everything about this quilt, the colors, the quilting, everything!
As usual, a fantastic quilt. Love the colors and the quilting.
So so beautiful - everything about this quilt is artful. Lovely work, Janet. I like Tea for Two - why not that?
Beautiful quilt - The Secret Garden just struck me when I looked at it. Reminded me of a story about a beautifdul garden with a Maze in the middle :)
