Bloggers Quilt Festival


Front

This is my first year participating, and I am so happy to do it with my neptune quilt! Its not totally finished just a little more binding to go! I love this fabric, and since the husband is a submariner, the hidden submarines in the fabric make it all the more special.

I actually started this project last year, but I wanted it to be perfect, and since I didn't have much experience when I started, I kept putting it away for other projects, learning new and better techniques and finally have come through all the stages!









Back
I am super in love with the back. When cutting the strips, you actually end up with enough for twelve extra blocks, and I think it works perfectly with the gray!
