Buds in a Basket...

Buds in a Basket is finally done!  This UFO bites the dust...finally, after a few years of being shelved!  I wish I had better pictures of it...but it has turned rainy and ugly on the West Coast...so it's inside for this quilt!


 'Buds In a Basket' is a design by Sachiko Yasuda.  


A close-up of the big stitch hand quilting done with perle cotton.  I know it's hard to see...


And the backing...


Just hanging around the house...with the buds!


Have a wicked Wednesday and Happy Stitching!~P

    When I think that you left this wonderful quilt as a UFO for several years... OMG... It was worth taking it back and finishing it! I really love your Buds in a Basket!

    A gorgeous quilt, Paulette. You give inspiration to the rest of us to get those UFOs done. And to think that this quilt top has been sitting on the shelf for a while.
