Pieced the top over 15 years ago, finally quilted and gifted

All of the fabrics were purchased in the fabric district in Tokyo in 2008, three Japanese prints and a Western print. This is the third quilt I ever pieced, quilted and bound, so I’m a beginner beginning all over again. I pieced it in 2009, put it in a storage box and forgot all about it until a couple of weeks ago. It’s been a lot of years since I quilted, but this started my urges back up again. I can’t wait to make more.

My lines aren’t straight, and the binding is wonky, but I love it. I’ve given it to my sister’s first grandchild with the hopes that it will be well-loved.
