New Bed Quilt 5

Just a short time ago I completed the piecing, joining both halves of this 2.5m quilt for our own bed. Spreading the top over the bed just now gives an idea how it will look when quilted:

At last I can see the effect and when quilted it will be very pleasing.

I am talking with a couple of contract long arm quilters whose work I like, and hope to get into agreement and get this on its way to one of them very soon. Just doing the centre seam joining the pieced halves was a matter of serious manoeuvring, and the unquilted top is already quite heavy. My modest domestic sewing machine, my work table, (even cleared of everything) and my back and arms are not equal to the task of quilting this one 🙂
