Fall Finish #1

I started this year on the #finishit2013 train.....I have finished very little. But I have started quite a bit. So, from now until the end of the year, for each new thing I start, I will finish one of my WIPs. Today's WIP, which can finally be deemed a finish, is my Scrappy Trip Around the World.


You may remember when the Scrappy Trip Fever hit Instagram at the beginning of the year. It took like wildfire. I was on a long term project in Columbia, SC, living in a hotel. But I still made my Scrappy Trip because I was so in love with what I saw. I quilted it on the diagonal echoing a diamond in one of the lower corners. I tried to photograph it, but it's kinda hard to see.


I put this binding on it, wasn't in love, so somehow it found its way to the closet.


I pulled it out the other day and was like 'I am going to finish this thing'. So I put the new navy binding on (Domino Dot Navy), and now I like it a lot more! Yay for a finish....finally!!!!!
