Hopping To It

 The Hopscotch top is finally complete.

It was first finished up a few weeks ago,

but the size was a bit small at a 56" x 64"

so I upped the size by 8" so now it 

measures a nice 63"x 71".

Here it is with the additional top row,


all sides pinned and ready to stitch and,


finally all sides on. A nice press

and it's time to audition some backings.


The organization bug bit me,

I tidied it up a closet and happened 

to find a small bin of yardage for quilt backs.

This Hopscotch is getting a nice green check back

with small baskets of flowers. 


There were enough 3-4 meter pieces 

that 3 more quilts now have backings!

The Sea Glass will get this nice gold

enhanced backing.  

The first of the blue scrap strip quilt is getting 

a muted striped backing that 

mirrors the stripes on the front.


 The multicolor strip quilt will

be backed with a small floral print with a 

black background. 


It turned out to be a very productive start to the week!
