I started this quilt many months ago. I've had 40 completed squares sitting around (I should have photographed them before I started sewing today). It's Denyse Schmidt's "hop skip and jump" pattern with lots of red reproduction fabric (my fave) and quilter's muslin. I've been wanting to finish this project and a few weeks ago I decided to work on it today (the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday) because I would have a big chunk of time and I wanted to complete it in one sitting. The quilt top is done!!! I'm SEW excited! Now I need to find someone to do the machine quilting, I'll bind it and it will go on the wall above my piano. I can't wait to have it completely finished and on the wall! It will be a dream come true.

Ooooh! That really is beautiful!!! It will be PERFECT in your room. The blacks, the reds, the contrast above the darkness of the piano. NICE.
I know several machine quilters in Mass. and the surrounding states. Let me know if you don't know someone and I will get you their names. CUTE QUILT!
I love it Ellen. The quilt looks like a piece of modern art and will be a great conversation piece in your living room.
