Finally Up on the Walls

Here's the Strips-n-Curves quilt I made last winter, and finished quilting this past fall. I just love the way the colors move. Plus it coordinated with my living room so well, I hung it downstairs. BTW...we have 2 deep purple chairs in the room to pull out the plum shades of the quilt.
A close up to show the hand quilting (and the residual chalk pencil marks!...)
I love the batik dots that I found in my stast to use in this project.
Here's the Fall quilt I gor from Luisa, although I mistakenly hung it upside down! That's part of our newly painted hallway.
And the other hall wall shows the spring quilt I made and the Winter quilt I received from Maria. I have more of the upstairs awaiting the swap quilts from the Spring session of the 4-Seasons Quilt Swap and the Spring Fling Round Robin, and the others I have started and vowed to finish before I die!
