Because we have a thick layer of ice outside with ice and rain still coming down, pictures of my Sewingly Yours 2013 BOM batik quilt finish were taken indoors. It's quilted with a loose free motion meander. The binding is a a colorful leaf print.
Instructions were to piece the blocks on point. If I had bought the finishing kit, the quilt would have been much larger. A BIG quilt. However, I opted to sash the blocks and make a lap quilt.
I used some green and blue batik fabrics from my stash and a row of 8.5" tulips pieced from my batik scraps to make the backing. After a go in the washer and dryer, it finished at 45"x 58".
It feels good to have a UFO from last year finished.

Great finish - love how you did the back.
I agree great finish! I know how you like to make the back of the quilt interesting and this one doesn't disappoint. Really nice!
Pretty quilt. That rose block is my favorite.
The backing is wonderful. What a great surprise for anyone who turns it over.
Yay for another finish! You are really churning them out, and that backing is fabulous!!!
Front or back it's a beauty! Thanks for sharing.
