Navy & Gold No-Piece - Pieced 08/24/2015. Quilted 08/31/2015. Bound 10/14/2015.

Aug 22: Purchased fabrics at Ye Olde Forest during their 2nd Annual Schoolhouse Event. Felt a heart throb when I spotted the gold on dark blue batik, imagining how perfect it would be with my navy blue recliners. Another one of my no-piece quilts was in my future just for me, just for my cozy little cabin, just for watching TV & relaxing at the end of the day. I knew I had my backing when I spotted the gold batik. A dark navy grunge for the borders and binding & I was all set.

Aug 26: Washed and pressed the fabrics.
Aug 27: Prepped the binding, added borders to the top & back. Added leaders to the back (leaves) to make it large enough to longarm. Will use Bottom Line #609 Dark Blue thread & bobbins to quilt Nancy Haacke's Owl Damask panto. It will be rather dense even at max size. Batting, humm. Thinking silk/bamboo but that is thin. Thought I had some Quilters Dream Deluxe on hand but apparently not.
Aug 28: Decided to order a bolt of The Warm Company's Warm & Plush 100% cotton batting (no poly scrim). Been wanting to try it. Since they don't sell a twin package, I ordered a bolt.
Aug 31: Batting is here. Looks & feels like W&N only plusher. Changed thread to Bottom Line #619 Tan with Bottom Line #602 Gold bobbins. Loading. Quilting. Quilted.
Sep 05: Attaching binding.
Oct 14: Binding finished. I have decided to gift this quilt to Dorothy Wonder, my dearest of friends.
