A {secret} Finish

So I finished my For the Love of Solids2 large project this weekend. This involved finishing the quilting,
my first try at corner hangers,
inaugurating my new quilt labels(!),
and quite a few hours spent on pieced binding - time-consuming, but I thought it was worth it with this mini's design.
The final reveal  remains pending . . .

  1. It's looking lovely, I love the colours.
    I have used corner hangings they work really well on smaller quilts, I put them on a large quilt but still had to put a sleeve in the middle due to it sagging.

  2. Oh, my! Not randomly pieced binding, but perfectly matched! Can't wait to see the whole quilt.
