The selvages were pieced on a foundation of painter's masking paper that comes on a roll in the hardware store. I just cut it to the sizes I needed for the blocks and borders.
The green is Kona Fern, that I thought was pretty close to this year's color of the year, Emerald. A few more selvages were used to make the back large enough.
I really had fun quilting this!
Motifs in the green spaces and mums in the spiderwebs.
This was my first time making a double sided binding.
This is my favorite quilt of 2013, so far!
