Double bed colourwash quilt

I mentioned this quilt in about 2 prior posts, and I finally got around to doing this.  What made this quilt rather special is that the quilt maker’s husband was almost bragging about it and eager to have it on their own bed.  Sometimes I do think men/husbands think quilters are wasting their time with this hobby.

Planning to use it on their bed, the quilter did not want elaborate custom quilting, which would anyway have disappeared on a colourwash quilt.

Yesterday morning did not go as hectic as I anticipated. By the time we had to attend the dress rehearsal, I had everything and more done, even did the laundry.  The rehearsal was short and sweet, and when we got home just after 9 am, it was into a clean house with most everything done.

Granddaughter was just as mellow and not her extremely active self.  We saw her yawning at the rehearsal a couple of times, and after having lunch, she fell asleep until it was time for her weekly swimming lessons.  I pretended to go to the doctor when I had my pedicure, knowing she wouldn’t be interested in tagging along.

I therefore got to finish this quilt that was on the frame.
