The backing fabric is the same as the border, it has a softer look than the photo shows. The inner border fabric has been in my closet for more than a decade. It's so satisfying to shop from my own stash.
I also finished this top, inspired by the LynneBobSquarePants quilt-along. I cut my scraps larger, so my blocks are a generous 24". The top finished at 72" x 96" which is good for the long, tall guys in my home. I also have backing fabric to piece for this one. I am eager to choose an all-over quilting pattern for this one.
I think all quilters know what finishing means, I get to start a few new projects!
Happy Sewing!

I have to say that when you first posted about the purple quilt, I wasn't too sure how the colors would work, but it turned out great! The dominant purples are lovely with their supporting colors.
Great progress getting so much done so quickly!
I love that purple quilt! It just seems to shimmer. Your other quilt top is lovely too. That looks like a fun block to make with scraps.
Lovely as always!
Beautiful purple scrappy quilt at the top. What is the name of that pattern?
It's from Scrap Basket Beauties by Kim Brackett. I tried to respond by email, but you are a "no reply" account.
