Stepson's Quilt Day 4

 I have completed quilting all of the rows at this point and have combined the first three rows together.  I will be working on completing the joining of the remaining 6 rows of the quilt, in 3 rows groups.  After the three groups of three rows together, I will then connect the three sections together.

After that,  I will be working on binding the quilt using the excess fabric left over from the backing material.  I made strips of the left over backing fabric and connected all of the strips together.  I did have excess fabric left over when I was finished binding the quilt, so I will use that to bind another quilt as long as I have enough for it.

I did decided to rag the back side of the quilt, since that was just one solid piece for each row.  I felt that will give it the option of being reversible, though ragging isn't required for that.  I thought it gave the back side of the quilt a little bit of character giving the fabric was a solid color (I used fabric from Keepsake Quilting and it was a black water color fabric that was 108" wide).

See ya soon!
