The last row -

 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Christmas Red -

 

Has been quilted - YAY!! - 

 

I took this photo before I started quilting it - 

But - trust me - it's done - 

 

 

I had some excess batting -

 

So I overcompensated for that part - 

 

And I had enough backing - 

 

So that wasn't a problem - 

 

But I had so much backing left -

 

That I wondered how close I got to the seam on the insert panel - 

 

About 3 inches - 

 

About as close as it could be without it being too close to the edge of the quilt - 

 

And I probably could have left out one of the insert panels - 

But all three panels sewn together measures 22" finished -

And the excess backing measures 20" before the zipper - 

So I couldn't have left it out entirely - 

 

 

Now I have some tidying up to do - 

 

I need to remove the zippers from the backing - 

 

And trim both quilts - 

 

And make some binding - 

 

And think about how I want to quilt the next ones - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
