First Finish of 2012

Well, I finally have my first finish for 2012.  With my machine gone for 3 full weeks, I had time to prep a bunch of stuff to finish, and I actually finished something within a week of getting my machine back.  Whoo hoo.

This wall hanging finishes 15" square.

I used a wool batting to make the hexis pop with some echo quilting around them.

Here you can see the echo quilting.

Here's the back.  I love how it looks.  I put a label on the bottom right and I have triangles in the top to help hang the quilt.  I love this technique to hang a wall hanging.

Overall, I LOVE how this came out.  Even though the fabric isn't my style, I love this quilt.  It will be heading down to my in-laws in a few weeks when my husband goes down to visit his mom.
