Train Wreck Quilt - Grand finish!

 I worked ever so hard to get this project finished by a certain date .....  a goal and a deadline is always an effective incentive for me .

I called this quilt Train Wreck ......  not because anything went wrong,  it was just the name that kept coming to mind.  So here it is ......  in all its 94 x 107 inches of glory.  I used cotton batting,  an extra wide fabric for the back, which was still not wide enough as I had to add pieces.

All my quilting is custom style, hand-guided on a Janome Versa sit-down.  I have lots of pictures cuz I tried to stitch something different in all of the elements.  It was quilted with several different shades of Omni thread and a gray Bottom Line thread in the bobbin.


I tried to get close ups of the quilting elements ........... Click on each photo to enlarge the view.
