Quilt - Part 3

The final part of the quilt is making the side boarders and putting it all together:

Made 128 of these

Laid out to be sewn on top, already together on the bottom

The entire quilt :)

In all it took me over 8 hours to finish the squares and connect everything together. The last part of the process is to add the batting for the middle and connect it with a backing and then quilt over the entire piece. I wanted it to be done really well so I gave it to a friend of my mom's who does the quilting on a professional quilting machine. My mom then volunteered to put the edging on, something I am still learning to do. We added the final touch of putting our names and dates on the back.

Finished quilt!

It took 9 months for everything to get finished up but it turned out really well and it was a lot of fun to work on.
