I spent a vast majority of the day today Sunday, finishing the piecing of this quilt top. I can't wait to get the backing done and get this all quilted. Then, I'll have to take this quilt out for a photo shoot before I deliver it to the newlyweds.
In case you are wondering, this is a recipe from Moda Bake Shop by Lynne of Lily's Quilts. The recipe was great, too. I really had no troubles following it. It was a bit tricky at first, to remember to offset the angles when sewing the half hexagons into rows. Luckily, I got it sorted out quickly and was able to sew along. This is the first real quilt pattern I have followed and I can't wait to get it completely finished.

Oh Sally it's simply wonderful! Your brother and sister-in-law will no doubt cherish it for years to come. You've chosen a lovely array of black, white, and red prints. I'm in awe!!
I agree with Duff, the fabric choices for this are absolutely stunning - possibly my fave version of this quilt!
