All of the blocks are complete, and now all that remains is the few sections of icky tension and the side edges that I couldn’t reach on my 2/3-size longarm setup. I am so pleased with how it turned out, and YES, I’m glad I chose to change thread and bobbin for every fabric color. Not a small effort but a wonderful detail. Oh, and #nofilter ... this is just the lighting in my sewing room.

1.5 rows left, plus three edges (couldn’t reach the side edges in my current setup, and haven’t gotten to the bottom edge yet). @orlandomqg, barring disaster it looks like I’ll be able to bring this one with me— either in process of being bound or finished. So pleased!

I will say that while changing threads constantly can be annoying (and hard on the body in this room, because I cannot get behind my quilting machine from here and I have T-Rex arms), it is fun to reach into this box to select the next bobbin I’ll need. When I started this quilt a lot of these bobbins were empty or had the last dregs of threads from the #messygoatfusionquilt ... it’s been fun to empty the reds and browns and refill with all the Easter egg colors.

Officially past the halfway mark. Are we there yet? How much longerrrrrr?
