It is finally sewn together! I'm so happy with it. For new readers here is the post with the inspiration. I worked on this quilt over a 6 week time period. I planned on using all different fabrics but in the end I repeated two.
There are a couple older rare Kaffe fabrics in the project. This is one of my favorites.
Here is another rare print.
It ended up about 79" x 95" and it was a challenge for me at 5'1" to get this up on the design wall for its photo session.
I took a few more nature photos but I'll just show one today. This is the third color Columbine that I have. This color is growing in a couple different places but I like the backdrop of the stone on my house for the photo.
My daughter's property with a named waterfall in NC is going to be on a TV show. Here is a link to the Facebook page for all of the details. You don't have to have a Facebook account to read it. I will be going out there for the reveal date.

So amazing. I know you love the red, yet the blues are so beautiful. It has a glow along with the shimmer.
Just viewed the farm adventure. Just beautiful!
It's awesome! I'm not much of a Kaffe fan, but yours is a perfect use for his fabrics.
The top looks great Wanda. I love the effect of the colored designs being "shattered" and how it causes such a vibrancy to the quilt.
The quilt is amazing. Great job!
This has the power of standing in front of a stained glass window with the sun streaming through. Just breathtaking!
Awesome...Mindboggling. Love it. Beyond my capabilities to even imagine it. Congratulations on a great job.
