Ignore the youngest! LOL...he said he just couldn't resist...if you look closely at the left side of the picture above, he is peeking out! I needed this laugh today!
Here is a closeup of the quilting. I used the Circle Lord Aztec template for the white spaces. I am pleased with how it turned out.
Here is the backing...this whole quilt was done from STASH!!!!!

AWESOME -- I LOVE, LOVE IT!! You did GREAT with the quilting, but that is not a surprise! Great colors for you! Hi to Dan peeking out around your quilt, and face making in front of it - gotta love that kid, oh wait I mean youngman! H/LY
King size...that's a lot of binding! I really love this. It's wonderful you made it all from stash! It's a great quilt to show off your quilting skill.
That sure is a stunning quilt!
You sound like you are by MN the way I am by TN--I have lived in Indiana much longer than Tennessee, but TN is still home and always will be.
NIIICE..and little one is cute to. I looked at your slide show and had to LOL as I've been hand quilting my chos and harmony quilt and your's is so nicely FINISHED. How many years has it been...geez I've got to get movin on that.
It looks great and what a wonderful job you did stashbusting. I need to make a new quilt for our bed but I keep putting it off - king size quilts are NOT my favorite!
