The Pink/Black Beast is a Top!

Here is the pink/black beast quilt top. I'm sending it out for quilting, hopefully I will do that tomorrow. This monster is 110" square, (I'm sure it will be a little smaller after quilting) so DS the Elder and DDIL will hopefully have plenty of covers to spare. I know DH and I fight over covers no matter how big the quilt is ;-)

The backing is the same as the border fabric, which is kind of funny since I did the same thing on Orca Bay. I don't normally match up backings with borders, but I guess it will make it easy for the LAQ since I'm sending both at once.

Now to decide which project is my main one. I have two quilts in assembly stage, and that huge pile of quilt tops to be quilted (including the 3 baby quilts I need quickly), and I want to make the twins a couple outfits. I think I'll work on pinbasting the baby quilts this evening, and tomorrow I can decide from there.

mel,
that is GORGEOUS!!!!! where oh where did you get the pattern? absolutely fantastic, and the colors are just wonderful too. great wedding quilt! i just finished piecing another trinity knot. this time using deborah's new pattern using strips. easier in some ways, but more time consuming on the organization part i thought. still, a gorgeous pattern and can see why you gave her the award ;o)

this one i did was for my daughter patience who got married this last weekend. i made a baby quilt to match using the center of the trinity knot--now to get them quilted!!
