Nikolai's Quilt: Finished

What can I say! I am so excited! I have finally finished Nikolai's quilt. My first ever blanket that I have free motion quilted on and I think it looks great! Even the binding looks good, the best I think I have done out of all the things I have done.

The best part, Nikolai likes it. It is his 'star' blanket because one of the blue fabrics has stars on it, and there are several friendship stars in it as well.

 

I'm just excited that it looks pretty good!

 

 

I love it! I am so proud of it! :) My goal was to have it done by the camping trip we took up in Payson, AZ this last weekend and I had it done in time! So glad too because it was so much colder than we were used to! I also did the sleeping bag liner, and I have to say that I am thankful the space heater worked so well because it did not seem to... Unless I was just being wimpy... But I will post more on that later I think.. maybe, hopefully... after I go through the pictures of Nikolai's first plane ride and everything...

 

But, at least it is now knocked off the ufo/wip list! Hurrah!
