I finally stopped avoiding the last 54" of hand stitching and finished the binding on this quilt last night.
It's hard to see the beauty of this quilt in a photo. I think the colors are prettier in person. The fabric is Wishwell's Weather Report, a line from several years ago.
The quilt ended up at 47" x 71" and I think it will be my recliner quilt.
I only had a couple pieces long enough to use for the back, also from the same line of fabric.
Storms rolled through around 10 last night. Chicago had over 5" of rain already in April but some of the storms missed us and I have had a total of 3.1" so far in my rain gauge. It sounded like fairly heavy rain for a little while so I'll check this morning and see how much more we got.
