A Quilt Finish for Me

I don't get to quilt for me very often so I decided I was taking this nice, long weekend to get some of my quilting done. This is the quilt I found in a box on a shelf a few months ago that was about 3/4 finished with some pieces missing and some pieces partially done and the pattern not kept with the quilt and I'm guessing about 7 years old

The Border

And the Back



I finished piecing it a few weeks ago and now it's quilted. The binding is cut and ready to apply. I thought long and hard how to quilt this thing and finally just gave up on custom and used one of my favorite pantographs, Virginia Flower.
