Pictures of the finished Midnight flight quilt

The Midnight flight quilt is done, washed and delivered to the recipients.

This quilt was fun to make.  The more I made of it the more I wanted to keep it for myself.  My daughter and I are both sad to see this one go, but I am sure my niece and her family will enjoy it.


This pattern is from one of Bonnie Hunter's books, called More Adventure with Leaders and Enders.  The only alteration that I made was the border.  Bonnie's border is, as usual very beautiful, but also labour intensive.  As I needed to get this one done soon, I opted for a more simple border.


Here are two close up pictures.  The one above shows the variety of neutrals and dark blues that I used.  The only constant is the light blue and green chain going across the quilt.  You can also see the backing fabric I used, which is tone on tone navy blue, and the binding, which is a batik mix of the same blue and green of the chain on the front of the quilt.


Happy Easter Monday everyone.
