My Good Luck is Finished?

Okay, it's getting to be the end of the month and I have a finish of sorts that I would like to share.  Here is a picture of my Good Luck quilt before I added the borders. 

Today was a busy and productive day.  My husband and I cleaned out our FROG (finished room over the garage).  It had become our dumping ground for luggage, boxes, worn out computers, outdated electronics...oh, it was a mess!  So we spent most of the day getting rid of stuff.  (This means more room for stash!)  My sewing time was limited.  But I did get the rest of the sashing sewn on and the rows all pieced. 

Here is a picture of it with the borders on.  It is on a full size bed (in the clean, dejunked FROG).

 

 

 

I hope to get the backing pieced and sewn together tomorrow.  Then the top and back of the quilt will be put away for machine quilting later.  (There is a really great reason the FROG got cleaned out!  I am so excited!)  And I am really hoping that my Good Luck that is finished is just the quilt top.

Good Luck Quilt in Progress

Will this quilt bring me good luck?  Should I buy lottery tickets?

I have been working on this one in the mornings before I go to work.  So far, I have the first two rows pieced together with sashing.  When I bought the Kona Coal I was a little concerned if it was too dark.  I like it!  Here is how it looks:

 

 

 

 

All four rows in the bottom photo.  It has a border and will end up at 79" x 79".  The pattern is from Debby Kratovil's book Supersize 'Em.  She taught this class at the Raleigh, NC Sewing Expo.  (See my earlier post.)

 

I hope to get the top finished before we have guests come to stay with us next week!
