On a roll - another finish!

So here is my stained glass window quilt (not to be confused with Sarahs stained QAL!
made with Amy Butler charm packs that the girls gave me for mothers day last year


I hand quilted around each block, each with a different colour thread

The colours have come out great on the back too

I love these vibrant Amy Butler prints and am glad that I finished this before this years Mothers Day - means I can hint for more fabric!!


The binding is a lime green which brings out all the colours, although its tricky to see here in this photo.

I am really pleased with how this has turned out - now I need to find somewhere to put it!!  Am off to the finish a-long flickr group to add it over there

    Beautiful! I am so drawn to dark sashing and background fabrics lately, and this one really shows off the beautiful AB prints. Nicely done!
