I tried numerous arrangements for this quilt, but eventually decided on random. I like the way it turned out. The binding is a diagonally printed black and white stripe and I used a bright floral vintage sheet for the back.
Long arm quilting was very relaxing. It was so easy to get into "the zone" and just go with it. Next time, I think I'll take my headphones and quilt to music. I was disappointed when I finished. I wanted to keep going! (I just have to add that Ara Jane went over the top with those gorgeous pink hexies. See a close-up at flickr.)
So, a big thank you to the do. Good Stitches "Love" ladies. I'll get this quilt packed up and shipped to Wrap Them in Love right away.
