Nearly finished

I quilted the two string table runners on Monday and then turned my attention to quilting a baby-sized rail fence quilt made of strips I found on the "free" table at guild.

When finished, this will go to Bags of Love along with the red hat I'm almost finished knitting.  I'm quilting straight lines in variegated purple thread on either side of the blocks, going both vertically and horizontally.  This leaves nice squares and makes the quilt secure for what will most likely receive a lot of machine washing/drying.  In putting the top together, I didn't do a whole lot of precision measuring or arranging.  Now that it's almost done, I see things I should have done a little differently, but oh well!

The back of the quilt is white flannel with medium blue stars, so I will need to find a binding fabric that goes with all the colors, probably a light cream solid.  I pieced the batting, too, so this quilt did not cost me anything.  All through these last few days when I've finished quite a bit, I thought about what I want to work on next.  Will it be the Exploding Heart or more Dear Jane blocks?  The former is purple, too, so I'm inclined to take a breather with Jane,  But first Bigfoot's Forest needs a binding.  As they say, so many quilts, so little time!
