Finally I finished this quilt I started over two years ago for Jono for Christmas. I made quilts that year with pieces of our childhood picnic blanket it in - you might recall the giant chevrons, and the house quilt. Anyhow this one and all it's small triangles was bound to kill me. I am not a triangle quilter. But I finished it. I love the monochromatic prints together though. Many of the prints were purchased at my favorite local shop Crimson Tate. The faded blue with the flowers is our old blanket. I also detest the dark navy fabric on the back it shows too many flaws. My machine was throwing a fit when with the quilting when I was using my walking foot. When I switched to my regular it was fine - that's what I get trying to use the right foot.
Anyhow Jono enjoy the birthday/Christmas present and many fun picnics to come!
