Back Porch Picnic,
a 1970s rescue flimsy,
is now a finished quilt!
Quilted by Margaret Gunn.
Freshly-laundered
(it desperately needed a bath for multiple reasons)
beautifully crinkled,
and wonderfully soft.
The binding and backing fabrics
were purchased by Chris during our first
Delta Patchwork warehouse sale adventure
four years ago.
Several months ago,
I bought the fabrics from Chris for my stash.
I absolutely love this large scale print . . .
Vintage yet contemporary.
Urban and gritty but not hard-edged.
Back Porch Picnic measures 70" x 70"

I guess I seriously need to think about getting the pink 9-patch that I adopted out and finishing it! Yours turned out beautiful!
That's a wonderful quilt and the backing fabric really makes that quilt sing !
Beautiful quilt! I really could not tell if it was an antique or new at first glance! For me, that's a great quilt!!
What a wonderful rescue! The quilting and backing really brought it to life. Looks like a great cuddler quilt.
Totally awesome quilt! I love the rescued top and the backing fabric is such fun!
Have a great day.
Always, Queenie
great reworking of an older quilt!
