Here and There and Back again

Back in the spring, my friend Chris brought me this orphan block and said "let's do something together with this"


And you know I never say no to a fun collaboration, or a challenge! So I added a checkered border to her block and passed it back to her...

And then she added more....
And so on...




Until eventually we had a completed quilt top! I matchstick quilted it on my domestic machine, added some big stitches with 8 weight pearl cotton and bound it in lime green after auditioning many options...





Catherine suggested the name Here and There and Back again and it fit perfectly. The finished quilt is 47"  x 33".
