Group finish

The Usual Suspects group quilt is now finished apart from sewing on the label which we/I will do on Tuesday. It's for a charity event which involves covering the Scottish football team's ground with quilts which will then be dispersed for charitable purposes.
We did mile a minute centres using Cherrywood hand dyes - great fun, then framed and simply quilted the blocks and joined them quilt as you go which involved quite a lot of handsewing on the back. I made a two colour binding to match both both sides and made a label.

Those interesting blocks look well together. What a fun group effort!
