Winter Wonderland Row Quilt - Top done.

At the Cotton Mill Guild last fall, we started working on this row quilt.  We were given a row each month and while I was south, we were given the last set of instructions to finish up the cute design.  The pattern is a free pattern designed by Natalia Bonner from Piece 'n Quilt and posted here on the Riley Blake Blog.
 I had kept up every month with the rows, and loved that I used only scraps from my stash to make this quilt.  It's like it cost me nothing!!  And I like the fact that not one of the scraps was Christmas or Winter fabric.   This afternoon, while cleaning up my sewing room, I came upon all my completed rows.  Well, it didn't take more than 20 minutes to sew all the rows together.   I like it.  I think I'll audition a couple of colors for a small border.  My plan will be and do some simple free motion quilting to finish it before our next guild meeting, in 3 weeks.  There is a prize drawing for all those who bring in the finished top. 

 It's cute eh?

It's very cute, especially those wonky letters. Don't you love finishing a project? It always makes me feel so good! Hope you post a picture of your finished quilt.
