Mountain Majesty Quilt- Ta Da!

I finished this quilt a month ago but have only just got around to posting about it. The blocks were made by myself and the now defunct Together circle of do.good stitches. The bee members were already depleted and then some of them dropped out , so it folded but the remaining members have now joined up with the Comfort circle, so all was not lost. A couple of my friends  ( Jo and Sue) stepped up and helped me out by making more blocks so I could get it finished.


I asked for solids only blocks in bright colours using Bonnie Hunters pattern and I'm delighted with it, it's so cheerful!


I used a extra wide back ( always so much easier) and a plain navy blue Kona cotton for the binding.



I quilted it  with a gold Glide thread in a variation of Angela Walters woodgrain pattern.


I love this quilting pattern, it gives such lovely texture.

This quilt is number 7 on my FAL Q4 list and is destined as another quilt for Siblings Together.
