UFO #7 Completed for 2013

I had this wall hanging top in my PHD files for more than 10 or 12 years. (PHD for those who don't know- "Projects Half Done"). I finally dug it out last week and decided to quilt it. In an afternoon, it was finished, binding and all. A few days later, I dealt with the stray threads and signed the back of it.

I really like "Everything But...!"
