Purple Quilt Completed

I sewed these purples together around Sept. or October.  I added the borders a week or so ago and finished quilting it yesterday in a meandering design, and sewed on the binding today.  Finished size is 76" x 89".




Each block is 6".  I have several people in the queue that want a quilt in purples.

This is my next project.  I sewed this quilt top the year before last.  I'm going to add on borders and put it on the machine.  I hope to have a quilt top on the Sunshine 16 regularly since I have two other quilt tops all ready to go too.  The center of each block is a charm square.

I'm adding a 2 1/2" striped border with mitered corners and then I'll add on a couple more bright colored borders to make it bigger.
I'm linking up with Kelly and Needle and Thread Thursday at My Quilt Infatuation Needle and Thread Thursday
