Scrappy Kaffe--A Finish!

Quilting design
This project is the back that became a front! I'm glad it did. Becoming a front meant I needed to piece a back for the challenge and a back for this project! The Gresham Senior Center longarmed it. The pantograph pattern is Botanical Blossoms.

Green binding
I used a different green for the binding as I didn't have enough left of what I had used in the front. I like the added depth of dimension the binding added.

Label

The label came from the guild free table long ago, I've been using the free table labels when I can figure out how best to use them! This time, I added the information I wanted to include around the preprinted information.

Hand stitching the sleeve
I did have to piece the sleeve as I was about two inches short of having a piece of fabric wide enough! The pieced part is next to the quilt so it appears the sleeve is all one fabric. Shhhh. . .we will keep that piecing fact between us!

Finished back
The handwork on this project was to close the corners of the binding, attach the label and sleeve. I machine stitched the binding to this project. 

Close up of quilting from front
In no time, I had another finish! This is the fourth finish of the year! It was goal number two on my April list. This project meets goal number three on my annual list. I used 11 yards of fabric in this project. I've used 30 yards of stash this month! Hooray!!!

Finished front
I have another finish to share with Finished or not Friday, Quilting and Patchwork, Slow Stitching and Oh Scrap. Since there is a measurable amount of pink in this project which is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge color this month, I'll link up with So Scrappy too.
