Black-Eyed Susans

I finally got the nerve to try to baste and quilt my finished grandmother's flower garden quilt.  So, I cleared furniture out of the dining room and painstakingly basted to back to perfection (I use spray baste, remember?).  Then I turned it over and painstakingly basted the front.  When I flipped it to check the back, there were wrinkles and puckers everywhere.  So I re-did it.  When I flipped it to check the front there were wrinkles and puckers everywhere.

So, I pulled it all apart, folded it neatly, and put it back in the closet.  Looks like I'll be sending that quilt out to Kept in Stitches.

Anyway, here's the finished top, if you're curious.
