a modern back.... finally!

for a couple years, on and off, i've been working on a free-pieced GIANT quilt for my mom.  all white kona and kaffe fasset super fun fabrics.  bright and bold.  it's awesome.  the top was finished last year and the backing has been put on hold for a little while.  life and health got in the way.

well....i started piecing it with vigor this summer.  and i finished it two weeks ago.


my living room wasn't big enough for this larger-than-king quilt back without moving furniture.  but you can get the idea.  she wanted bold and big expanses of color with the leftover fabrics.  i think i nailed it, and gave her a reversible quilt.


even the cat had to have her say and crazy-cat moments on the back when i stepped away long enough to eat dinner.  (i really need to organize all my books better... they've overflowed to boxes on the floor)
