Drumroll, please...

I finished the Puzzle Quilt!




I didn't meet my goal of having the horizontal ditches sewn before my trip to Texas, but I managed to knock all but 3 of them out the day I was leaving. I finished it up today. I got on a roll working on it last night & it became like a book that I was close to finishing...I just had to see how it was going to turn out! Also similar to finishing a book, I now feel an empty space as though I don't know what to do with myself...Fairy costume, here I come!

Here are a couple of closer up shots so you can see the border stitching & the individual pieces:






And here is the back with a close-up of the outlines of the puzzle piece stitching:






What do you guys think? I think it looks pretty nice for a first "solo" effort!

That looks terrific! I love the puzzle piece pattern on the back from your stitching. Congratulations!
