I showed this quilt top in sewing a few days ago, but it is now promoted to projects as it has been quilted in the hoop of my embroidery machine. This was the first time the quilting hoop had been out of its packaging but I think it will see more use now!
The backing is fleece. It doesn't have a conventional binding. I cut the fleece to just under half the width of the border I had added and then folded and stitched the border over it.
It is about 52 inches by 44 inches.

Looks great. Lots of wrangling with the fabric I imagine but so worth it by the looks of it

It is fabulous! How long did it take to work it? 30 hoopings?

Each one only took 5 minutes to stitch, but a lot longer to hoop!

What a great job you have done. The back is as lovely as the front. Nicely done.

Love the colors. It is beautiful. Haven't tried machine quilting on quilts yet but this just may motivate me to try. Thank you for sharing.

Gorgeous! So how big of a hoop did you use? Amazing!

The quilting design is 195mm square to fit my 200mm blocks. My quilting hoop is 220mm square so plenty big enough.

I just love this!! How did you connect your "In-the-hoop" blocks?

They aren't ith blocks. The patchwork was the quartered stripes quilt from MSQC made on the sewing machine. I just did the quilting on the embroidery machine.

I really enjoy seeing your quilt! I think ME and quilting go hand-in-hand and enhance each other. Good job!

WOW! that is gorgeous. Love your fabric choice. Thank you for showing the back also. Beautiful quilt. You have to be so so happy with it.

Thanks for showing the back. Did you hoop the quilt? or use a stabilizer and pin it on? I have a crib size quilt that I'm going to try this on. Love your work. Avis

The quilt was hooped. No stabiliser!

Love it Sue, Beautiful job. Have not tried backing with fleece but after seeing this am strongly considering a Christmas quilt backed with fleece./lillian

I've used fleece as a backing both with and without batting. It gives a nice cuddly finish and is easy to work with. You should try it!
