Finished!

Ginger's quilt is finally done! My first and only (probably) quilt! Huu raa! And what's the first thing she wanted to do with it? Get snuggled! I love that girl. Initially the idea was to finish all of the individual pieces for her room in secret and then surprise the heck out of her with a giant reveal at the end. But come on, how can you work on a quilt for three months without having piles of work-in-progress laying around? I couldn't. So she's seen every inch of this thing progressing, and I think it's been exciting for her. "Look how big my quilt is now!"-kind of a thing. She was right there with me, cheering, as I hand-stitched the last few inches of binding. I don't think she could believe that it was actually, finally, all the way done.



There's one mistake, erm, what I mean to say is, of the many mistakes I made on this quilt, there's one pretty obvious one. If you enjoy Where's Waldo sorts of things, you might like trying to find the broken line where I accidentaly put Fabric A instead of B.
