Large leaf quilt - Slow stitching

I fnished another quilt (46" x 72")!!  It took the better part of a full day but it is done!!  Two more to go before I can move on to a new project.  I used a soft green for the backing as well as the binding for this one and added a flannel batting.  I did have to redo a few things along the way but eventually the binding went together very well and I am very pleased with how it worked out.  I used solid strips in between the pieces strips which worked really well when I was piecing the top.  Much less streching than if the strips are all pieced.  The large slow stitched leaves really stand out again the blue background.  I am really enjoying making quilts that incorporate my slow stitching.  It makes very unique quilts with a personal touch.  It was nice to have coordinating fabric scraps to put together for this top.  I have committed to finishing the quilt tops I have finished before starting a new project.  I am still slow stitching cat squares.  I have a LOT of them and I just recently trimmed black squares for all of them and stitched cats down which now leaves only the slow stitching to finish them.  I expect there will be a few quilts that will incorporate the cats in various manners.  Therese
