The (endless) lines of wavy quilting is DONE!

Although I usually take my large quilts to a wonderful LAQ, I opted to quilt my daughter's dorm quilt by myself on my own machine.  The only way I could tackle the monster was to use organic wavy lines.  This way I gave myself permission for the lines to be something other than straight.

I spread quilting the beast across multiple sessions, next going more than 45 minutes before taking a break.  Since it was 70 inches wide and 100 inches long, I would celebrate the completion of each 10'' row as a % of the quilt was done.

For the backing, I choose a soft, soft flannel gray with a diamond pattern.  My daughter wanted flannel (she is always cold) and the silver gray color works well with the quilt.

But flannel meant it was massively heavy as I draped it across my shoulders to hold some of the weight.  That said, I did it!

I just love the way it turned out and - more importantly - so does my daughter who will be taking this to her freshman dorm in the fall.

Now I need to make a label and bind!

Can wait to share the final quilt!
