I finally finished my Bali Flags quilt which I've been working on (between other projects) for the last year. The initial quilt op was quite easy by I had some trouble when it came to quilting it. Because of the prairie points you sew it up like a cushion case, which resulted in a back that didn't match the size of the front. The result was some reverse stitching and a lot of pressing and hand sewing as I quilted. Last year I bought some quilting rulers, and used this project as my trial of them. It doesn't show well in the photo, but I did circles in the middle section and an off centre spiral pattern in the border. That was a lot of work. I bought the pattern from Wacky Jacky's. I'm going to use this as a wall hanging in our spare bedroom. The bed in there is going to have a quilt which uses the same batik fabrics (the quilt top of it is done - I just need to quilt it.)
