Actually it was done Tuesday but what with 3 of the DGKs coming in and out of our home, it's been hard to post let alone quilt or sew anything. But yes, finally got DH to hold the quilt so I could take some photos. Here it is:
Have no clue why the border looks so blue. It is actually a deep purple. Oh well. This was a kit I bought at a Judy Sisneros lecture to a local guild. It was a nine-patch pizzazz kit. Went together easily. Have no clue why it took me years to quilt it. I'll probably put a sleeve on it and hang it in the living room. The back is a batik. I usually use a busy print so that my quilting mistakes won't show. This time I had to use this fabric and decided I might as well do something other than an all over. I came up with these feathers in the corners and the setting triangles and diamonds for the nine-patches. It's a start.
Here's a close-up:
