My Fantasy Garden is quilted. I took it off the frame and trimmed it and cut binding for it.
This one has all over loops with pink variegated thread. (Click to enlarge)
I needed something to sew while I watched TV last night so I sewed on the binding and started the hand stitching. I have one long side done and about 18" on one short side.
I finally got this Australian fabric top pressed and borders trimmed. It is 51.5" x 75", a nice size for covering up on a recliner at nap time.
It was cold enough yesterday for the heat to come on. After the string of close to 80 degree days it was an extreme change. It was 33 degrees at 11 p.m. yesterday.

Fantasy Garden is a beauty, the holyhock border fabric couldn't be bettered for this particular quilt.
Hi Wanda! Love the garden quilt! I love the stripe sashing next to the floral border!
And striped binding is my favorite!
What type thread did you use for the quilting? It looks so pretty!
Stay warm in this crazy weather!
Fantasy Garden is so pretty. I guess it's time to restock the quilt stash after your niece's visit! LOL!
I love the strip sashing/binding! I have a little bit of stripe fabric in the stash that I haven't decided what to use it for yet haven't had something in the right color grouping to use it for
Fantasy Garden is just delightful--nice job getting it all quilted--so pretty!!
Only 50 this morning and foggy again with a raw east wind blowing good day to stay inside and do some more sorting...hugs, Julierose
Your Fantasy Garden quilt is perfect for spring.
Thats a beauty!!!
From the high 70s to the low 40s --and snow on the roof this morning. But we certainly needed the rain.........But on to quilting. I just left a comment on another blog saying that I really like busy prints next to busy prints and your Fantasy Garden fills the bill!
I love that stripe you used for the binding on Fantasy Garden. The Australia quilt top is looking great! The weather was still warm here yesterday. Right now it’s 42, windy 16 mph, and rain is coming. I had to turn the A/C on this weekend. Patty
Another one quilted and oh so pretty, the looping quilting adds to its beauty.
Australian top has such a precision charm to it.
Heard you woke up to snow this a.m. Difficult to keep up with this unusual weather pattern I know.

Fantasy Garden is such a happy and colorful quilt, and you should pat yourself on the back (carefully) as you continue to hand quilt the binding. Applause!!
Stay cozy!
Hugs!
Your 'fantasy garden' is delightful! I love the contrast between the stripe sashing & the florals 👍
