Finally a finish – it always feels good to say those words, doesn’t it? It’s been quite awhile since I’ve finished a larger quilt, so I’m excited to show this to you today.
My Squiggles quilt is from a quilt along a year (or two?) hosted by Christa Watson. For my quilt, I used Alison Glass Sunprint fabrics with an Alison Glass text fabric. The saturated colors in her fabrics just glow, don’t they? It definitely made sewing all those folded corners more fun, since I had all those pretty colors to look at.
Here’s a close up of the background text fabric, also Alison Glass. You can see Connie’s wonderful quilting, in squiggles, of course!
The background fabric looks like multi-colored confetti. I thought it was perfect for this quilt. It makes me think of a celebration. I finished it off with a multi-colored striped binding. Both of the fabrics came from Bernie at Needle & Foot. In case you didn’t see it above, here’s that fun rolled quilt photo again!
One more view of this lap quilt, with its bright, happy colors.
So – finally a finish! Linking up today with Tish at The Madd Quilter for her UFO Busting Linky Party.

Oh happy day! It is a lovely quilt, well done on finishing it
As always another bright and cheerful quilt. What do you do with your quilts when they are finished? I struggle to find good homes for mine now that everyone I know and love has been gifted at least one.
A lovely finish, so bright and happy!
It’s a wonderful quilt Wendy! Well done and so HAPPY! You made my morning! Stay healthy!
It’s absolutely beautiful, Wendy!!! I’ve wanted to make that quilt ever since the QAL. Yours is one of the prettiest on the net!
Just gorgeous and so warm and cheering a quilt!! Nice work–a finish always makes your heart sing…

Oh, I love all that color. And what a cute binding! Nicely done!
nice quilt always so nice to have a finish isn’t it. Looks like you have a nice deck to be on when the weather warms up for you although on cool days sometimes I sit on the porch with jacket on for 10 minutes or so just breath fresh air!
Just gorgeous! I think Rose got us into it and I really enjoyed it. Your friend is back to quilting?? Hooray. This is just lovely and I adore the backing!
Almost needed my sunglasses for this bright quilt! So fun and pretty. Are you keeping this one?
Testing testing getting ready to give my I’d again. I thought this quilt was finished at the same time the Sistas were.
I like your new blog even though I still can’t do comments
That is pretty, Wendy! A very happy finish! It is always a good feeling to have something “finally finished.” I definitely have a few quilt tops that are waiting their turn for that designation!
Congratulations on the finish! The backing and binding are perfect compliments to the bright, saturated Alison Glass prints. 🙂
I love it!! You know these bright happy colors make me smile. This one uses so much of the rainbow…surely that’s a sign of better days to come 🙂
Wonderful and bright – the perfect finish Wendy. It is beautiful. I love the Alison Glass fabrics. I have a stack that I am saving for just the right project…..
Gosh this is pretty! Saturated colors plus text fabric is a perfect combination. Nice finish!
Hi Wendy! Yay to a finish. And a pretty one at that. I just adore the fabrics you chose. I love the rolled up shot, and that binding is spiffy. Nice job, my friend. ~smile~ Roseanne

Thank you!!
Bravo Wendy! What a cheery finish. That binding though!
Thank you!!
I love this colorful quilt with the saturated Alison Glass fabrics and the low volume text background. And that colorful striped binding is the icing on the cake.
Wendy, these bright saturated colors are my favorite! They are perfect in this quilt. Striped binding is the cat’s pajamas. Fun!
