I pressed the backing fabric and loaded it on the longarm Saturday. Yesterday afternoon I added the batting and top and quilted it.
I did the organic straight line quilting again, no channel locks to keep it straight. The lines are 3/4" to 1 1/2" apart so it is very soft and cozy.
I trimmed it and cut binding from the same dark fabric as the large squares. I did the binding all by machine. It took about a little over 2 hours compared to 5-6 hours finishing by hand. It is 59" x 83" so it is plenty long for a 6' person on the couch.
The backing fabric looks great with the front. All of the fabrics on both sides are batik. I like it a lot better now than I did when it was just a top. I think the quilting pattern looks great on it.
