I am just now realizing that I didn't post a picture of the finished quilt. I did finish it a few weeks before our trip to China in early November. I was probably too busy trying to pack.
It's been washed several times since November. I'm now discovering a few problems with it. It's SO sad! The quilt stitching "pops" any time there is any tension on the fabric. I used Coats & Clark "bowl of cherries" quilting thread. I will NEVER use that stuff again. I now have to go back over the entire quilt & use invisible thread over the red thread to secure it before it gets much worse. Not what I was looking forward to doing...
The other problem is the backing fabric attracts lots of lint. It attracts any lint from the dryer, loose threads & fuzz from the inner batting. It's like a magnet. I'm GRRRRing over this quilt.
