First finish of 2022?

Football and sewing on a Sunday in January.  I am making a back for Orca Bay a Bonnie Hunter mystery from 2010, maybe?  It measure's 77 X 84 and I found a 4 1/3 yard piece in my stash that I decided will work for the back.  I normally piece my backs, so I am happy to be getting some of my bigger pieces out of my stash.  So, 5 inch leaders will be added to all four sides as instructed by Spring Water Designs https://www.springwaterdesigns.com in order to use their long arm quilting machine.  Wednesday is my scheduled day to come in and rent.  I am working regular schedule on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday this week, and then I am taking some time off for some me time.

I have no idea where or why I bought this fabric.  I think I bought it from Seminal Sampler during their going out of business sale, so 2015?

I'm looking forward to my first finish in 2022.

Until next time, happy piecing, happy sewing,
