I spread out the top and thread basted it. I can start quilting it today on my straight stitch machine.
The paper whites started blooming.
I have one bloom and a few tiny buds on the cactus started from my mother in law's plant. This one is a coral/red.

Nice choice of backing--is that one of Vicki's hand dyed fabrics?
Paperwhites blooming is a lovely Christmas gift from your indoor garden--such a delicious smell.
Love the backing. Why not quilt it on the long arm? Boy, I really need one of those machines.
Wow! that backing works so well with the front of the quilt. I know it will be lovely,
I love paper whites and totally forgot to get any flowering plants this year. I just didn't get very much into Christmas this year and need to do better next year.
What a perfect backing you have chosen! I really like that quilt - the colors are so vibrant. It just looks lively and happy! Your flowers are beautiful.
That is a great quilt. What kind of quilting are you doing? Straight lines?
That is going to be a wonderful quilt, Wanda.
Love the quilt and absolutely adore the backing. Bright quilts and fabrics are my favorite. happy New Year.
Your top looks very bright and fun too. The backing fabric is beautiful too. Just found your blog. I hope I can say one day that I'm quilting for almost 60 years! Very impressive and such fun to be able to do something you like for so long.
