Final Finish of 2016

Well, I am guessing that this will be my final finish of the year. I am mixed on this quilt. I received the Hexometry pattern in a Quilty Box, and I did have fun with it. I needed to cut more hexagons so I used up some Cotton + Steel fabrics (a FQ pack that I bought a couple of years ago) that were in the same colors.  I ended up using the leftovers for the backing fabric.




The back:


It is a lap-throw size, all washed up and snuggly.  I'm planning to send this one off to a niece in the next week (Edit: just mailed off this afternoon!).

I did have some issues with quilting in a circle and had to rip out sections of quilting when I found the backing was gathered in spots.  I'm not exactly sure what happened with this project.... for whatever reason I had issues from the start to the finish with hand sewing the binding.  I think sometimes some fabrics just have different feels and sew differently.  This one was a lot of trouble--which I'm glad that I've used up nearly ever bit of the Cotton+Steel fat quarters that I had in this line.

ETA:
I took some outdoors pictures, I think the colors look close to the indoor shots...




Happy Christmas and New Year!
