I finished our quilt group "Bound Together" 's Mystery SAL this beautiful afternoon. (Just the top)
I struggled with the pattern and was about to give up so many times but I'm glad I stuck with it.
I don't normally do the "victory lap" of machine basting on the outside of the quilt top but this one has so many bias edges that it needed to be done.
It's spread out upon tall grass so it doesn't look very smooth in this picture. It measures about 60" square.
I was unable to get a really good picture on this old trellis but I wanted to include the absolutely beautiful autumn sky. It really is that bright blue color!!! Amazing!
Enjoy you day!

A beautiful finish Robin! I'm glad you persevered because your efforts really paid off! This has a wonderful southwestern vibe, just like you were hoping. Well done!
It's beautiful! Love the colors and the pattern. Your photos look gorgeous.
This is a lovely piece--I can see why you "struggled" it looks challenging--but your flimsy came out beautifully, Robin...;)))
Hope you are enjoying this lovely Autumn season...hugs, Julierose
That is a very happy quilt! Nice color combo. It definitely doesn't look like it was easy to do. Kudos to you for sticking with it!
Love a good quilt photo shoot!
Congrats on the quilt top finish! It's beautiful. I love the colors you chose. It's good you kept going even when you felt like giving up. Because of all the diagonal seams/blocks it looks like a complicated top that would require lots of care in the making of it.
Gorgeous sky!
