(that should draw a crowd!)
I have another finish to share...
"Melbourne Town" is quilted and bound!
I had intended to hand quilt this but couldn't find the
motivation to get started...
So I machine quilted the sky first on the diagonal,
then added some 'in-the-ditch' around the larger
pieces.
By this stage I felt some hand quilting would finish it
off nicely!
I used grey perle #8 thread for this.
And as it is often the case, I didn't really want to
stop!
I chose a soft yellow gingham to frame it.
It matched nicely the backing!
Yes, this is the backside I referred to in my title!

I even remembered to put some 'hanger triangles' on the corners this time! |
I resent paying top dollar for fabric that will go
'sight unseen' against the wall.
And I have been trying to use my stash this year, so
this is what I chose!
"Melbourne Town" is now happily residing on my
sewing room wall...

My favourite section! |
where no one can see "my backside"!
Happy sewing,
