I had to quilt the top, bind it and enter it by end of work day on Monday. I started quilting on Friday and finished late Sunday night. I wanted to stress the block designs with the quilting. I had to choose binding fabric (tough), make it, attach it, and photograph it. I took it outside to photograph and wouldn't you know it, it was when the eclipse was happening, so I had to wait a bit, then photo, crop and do a digital entry form and upload. I accomplished that at 3:30 Monday. Even if they reject the quilt, I love it and will find somewhere to show it.

| I did the skinny blades the same alternating straight lines for uniformity, but made each half pointed oval a different design. I used Cream Glide and Cream PremoSoft. |

I love it too!
Fingers crossed for you - it's beautiful!
it's a great quilt - good luck!
WOW....fabulous. And how long did it take to make your "made" fabric? I am not sure I would have the patience to do that then make the quilt. The quilting detail looks really good. I think it is a winner for sure.
Wow. That's a lotta work. I thought for a moment the binding was pieced too, but thank goodness when I blew it up, that wasn't the case.
Good luck!! a
That backing fabric is perfect for that quilt. What a great quilt. If they reject it, then they can't see, and need glasses.
Stunning work! It feels like looking through prismatic windows into a world beyond.
Oh that's a great quilt Linda - congratulations and good luck for your entry to the show!
