Michelle's 40 Birthday Quilt

I had been working on this quilt for a few months but didn't want to post my progress before Michelle's 40th birthday. Here she is at our barbeque yesterday, enjoying her new quilt!
















































Hand-stitching the last of the binding.....






This is while the machine-quilting was in progress. I took Terri's good advice and set my straight lines in advance with some masking tape.






I started by making the "Card Trick" squares and took it from there. It took some searching to find the right sashing!
