Quilt Journey is Almost Complete!

Since that last quilt post I have added the white border to the quilt,  I also created the back of the quilt.  I hope it would be all green but I apparently didn't do the math right so I added some purple blocks on the back.

Quilt backing

After that, it was time to quilt!  I layered the backing, batting and top of the quilt.  I choose to stitch in the ditch around the zigzag "journey" line on the front.  I forgot how difficult that can be when working with a lot of fabric.  This is only my second quilt, so I haven't figured out all the best practices yet.

Quilting a lot of fabric on a small machine can be...interesting

After I quilted the top zigzag, I went around the quilt and stitched in the ditch of the white border. 

Quilting complete!

Next step is to trim the edges and add the binding!
