S'mores Quilt Finish

 This project started back in 2013 when I saw this quilt 

in this magazine.

I made 1 block immediately 

And then started pulling fabrics

Then, for whatever reason, it always ended up getting pushed aside, but I loved making the blocks whenever I would drag it back out. I enjoyed making them so much that I made more than the pattern called for so my quilt is bigger.

It was fun to use up scraps

Then I stalled out when it came time to choose fabric for the sashing. Nothing felt right. I don't have a lot of options locally, but I'd always look and pop into quilt shops when I was on the road. I finally settled on this sale fabric that I found online. I still wasn't convinced it was the best choice, but it was what I was going to use.

I reaĺly dislike piecing quilt tops that are on the diagonal, but this one was worth it. The little economy blocks are a favorite of mine

I shared this shot in a previous post, but it made the cut for this one again...Skeet's too sweet.

Sandy used a design called Mother Goose that shows up nicely on the back.

I pulled a print from my stash for the binding

At 88"x88" it will be a good fit for the guest room bed or a nice addition to a fundraiser although DH has taken a liking to it.

I am so tickled to have this one finished after all these years!
