A string finish!

This is the biggest quilt I've quilted yet.

And it's all SCRAPS!  Amazing, yes?

It's part of Stephanie at Loft Creations String to Finish Challenge.  And I had a really good time with it. 

It was my husband's Father's Day gift, and the first quilt I've made just for him.  He requested something extra long since he's a rather tall fellow and blankets are often too short for him.  It measures 70" x 96".

Machine quilted on my trusty vintage Bernina.

Here's the back.  It's pieces out of my stash. 

I quilted it in spirals.  There's one large spiral in each block, then one smaller one on each corner.  I really enjoyed this method, and it turned out to be quite easy to do.  Even on such a large quilt.

Each block is foundation pieced on muslin, so it was rather heavy.  But I like a heavy quilt.

I keep the binding leftovers from all my quilts, and so for this one I cleaned out my binding scrap bag for a scrappy binding.
