Here’s the last FO for the week!
Yep, I finally sucked it up, got the Happy Camper top together and quilted that bad boy!
If I’m honest, this is not my favourite quilt. There’s nothing wrong with the pattern – it was well written and easy to follow. I think it’s just too busy with these fabrics. Were I to do it again, I’d mix in some plainer fabrics. There’s just too much going on in this.
I did change things up a bit on the quilting – opting for what Mom calls “squiggle meander” instead of loops. Loops just seemed a little too feminine for this one.
For the back, I used a nice chunk of green checked flannel. Some nice blue binding from the stash finished it off!
Despite my fabric choices, one thing is certain, it will certainly make the campfire that much cozier!

It IS a little hard to see the campers, but it is still a VERY beautiful quilt.

Maybe a little busy, but certainly fun. Love the pop of yellow and the backing is perfect! Your quilting is really nice too.

I love scrappy quilts! They offer so much to look at and to explore. The checked flannel is perfect for this fun quilt.

Oh no, please don’t consider this quilt anything but adorable! It’s going to look terrific in their camper/RV/tent!

That is really a wonderful quilt! I think the gray you used along the edges tones it down just a little. It will be so snuggly.

What wonderful finishes you’ve accomplished lately! Loved the sweater and agree, the quilt is good, but a little bit less chaos would be nice. But does it really matter when it’s the snuggle factor we are going for?
