At last...

(I cannot type those two words without hearing Etta James in my head!)  My Chocolat quilt is finished.  Quilted, bound and washed...everything! I have been working on this quilt for more than 3 years.  I collected fabric for the longest time.  Because I had no idea what pattern I was going to use, I have have so much more fabric than I needed.  I have already used some of the yardage for valences in my bedroom and pillow shams.  Next up will be pillow cases, a bed skirt and I think I will still have enough to make enough patchwork fabric to cover a vintage spool chair in my room.  I think this may still be my all time favorite 3 Sisters collection from Moda...though I adore Portabello Market and Peace on Earth.  Ok, I love Vienna Nights, Roman Holiday, Glace', etc.  (Pretty much if 3 Sisters designs it, I buy it!)

I just did a big, fat meander on the long arm, nothing jazzy.  It took me five hours to blind stitch the binding.

This is the largest quilt I have made - queen size - and I cannot wait to put it on my bed.  Unfortunately, I will have to wait just a little longer since I left the darned thing at my sister's house!
