My version of Bonnie Hunter's Good Fortune has been quilted for many weeks. I finally got around to binding it yesterday. I bound this one by hand in hopes of preserving the triangle points on the outer border. I cut off a few, but I'd have cut off more of them if I bound by machine. The binding is purple grunge that was leftover from another project. This quilt is 70"x 71".
Debbie Cooper of Finish My Quilt did the longarming. The quilt is too busy on the front for much of the quilting to show, but it looks great on the back! The back is an extra wide shot cotton, so it is very soft. I am so happy with the way it turned out that I'm keeping it!
