I found a big piece of Amish country quilt quality fabric for the back. I had enough to make a one-fabric back. I remember buying this at a fabric garage sale a few summers ago. I knew it would be a quilt back someday. It's super soft like high-quality fabric is. The lady that had the garage sale said her husband said she had too much "stuff". She was selling her awesome quilting stuff and CANDLES... I'm not a candle fan. All of her fabric smelled like candles. This fabric still smells like vanilla candles...
I'm happy to quilt the bright colors. I am using my Circle Lord giant template board (15" Baptist Fan). Now that I am using the template the way it was intended I LOVE this design. I have put off using this template for so long. I have quilted with it upside down for years and had trouble lining it up. I finally did a customer quilt a couple of weeks ago and figured it out by accident. You can read about it here.

Go Kathy. Looking forward to seeing it quilted. I was born in Ohio and lived there until I was 33. I have a soft spot in my heart for Ohio.
It is a big challenge to finish this quilt and it is almost completed. Bravo for you.
My goodness you have gotten a lot done! This quilt is unique and so fun!
Looking good, Kathy!! A finish is on the horizon. :o))
