I am so happy to FINALLY be sharing this By Your Side quilt with you! I feel like I have been making this quilt forever, and just finished working on it last week.

I finished the top years ago and then it lingered in my studio closet waiting to be quilted.

The quilting stage gave me some trouble, as I had my batting flipped and was getting all sorts of looping and thread breakage. For more about batting ‘sides’, visit  Suzy Quilts for a fabulous post on the subject!

It sat in my closet again for months waiting for me to remove all the bad lines of quilting.

Finally, last week, I sat out in the beautiful sunshine and finished the job!

It was nice to finally see it done and Phin gave his kitty seal of approval!

Happy quilting! ~L
